A friend took me on this shortcut between buildings at CERN and I am definitely NOT now possessed by the restless spirits of generations of tortured protons

You might be able to put the protons and electrons in jail, but everybody knows that neutrons can’t be charged.

Protons are very, very small
It takes a lot of them to fit across an orange, for example. And a mole, too.

Organelles do NOT have a single uniform pH.
And if you think they must, because “protons diffuse fast,” this paper is for you.
