What is going on? A person like you should be in a lab to make inventions. When are you going to apply all this learning to practical and make a video for us?

For god sake no! I am a theorist... Believe me, you don't want to see me playing with screwdrivers :D
It is very practical. 5 Steemians, who are not particle physicists, are contributing to state-of-the-art research in particle physics. The entire field of research does not only consist of applied research. There is also other stuff, that are as useful. I can easily convince you if you want to enter the debate (to quote a few examples: please think about the GPS back in 1917 for instance, or about hadron-therapy in its early days, or even about the web).
theorist ... ok I got this now. But it is amazing to see that you enjoy writing about things which make me sleep :p
I always enjoy writing about my field in full generality, which ranges from theory to experiments. We are physicists after all. The "theory"/"experiment" tag is a small detail.
