Holy crap. They're going to kill Fermilab!

They're facing closing the lab for at least two months in the new year (sending everyone home with no pay), and killing off the two project proposals that might keep the lab alive after the Tevatron shuts down in 2010.
This is a terrible day for science in this country.
