RHIP? Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics? 😕

Here’s a link to the most recent ATMB thread about this - [Click here.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=664179)

I had to ask the same thing recently. To become a paying member, go to User CP (the leftmost button on the menu bar up top) and then go to the bottom selection on the list at the left to pay for a subscription. They still haven’t added a Subscribe button on the main menu bar. ☹
