1. CERN is swiss-french, the main offices are in Switzerland a few hundred meters from the border with France. 2. By far most of the LHC tunnel is located in France. 3. Most of the colliders are located in France, including the biggest one (CMS): http://passeport-big-bang.web.cern.ch/fr/dix-%C3%A9tapes-pour-faire-le-tour-du-lhc-en-surface 4. It's nowhere near the swiss skiing resorts. The closest skiing resorts are in the french Jura or Alps. In fact, where the CERN is, it rarely snows. 5. The instrument that Sheldon plays has nothing to do with this part of Switzerland. It's of a distinct culture that's in the eastern part of Switzerland.
