Actually, a lot of new technologies that have immediate applications in your daily life had to be invented.
For instance, the CERN Openlab http://proj-openlab-datagrid-public.web.cern.ch/pr oj-openlab-datagrid-public/ develops new networking, storage and parallel computing technologies that will help us deal with the incredible quantity of data that will be generated by the LHC experiments.
Along the same line, new tomographic methods will revolutionize the way we treat cancers and leverage medical imagery. http://bulletin.cern.ch/fre/articles.php?bullno=04 /2005&base=tra
So no, it's true, if you're part of a CERN member state, it wasn't what you paid for with your hard earned tax money. It's like a big chocolate box, it's be a shame to throw it all away just because you don't like almonds right ?
