I'm con-Cern-ed abot this.

Yawnnnnnnn like I give a shit. I mean really. The last time something struck the earth was when Anna Nicole had Her baby.

Larry

The last time something harmful struck the earth-was the last time chimpy fell off his bike.

Larry- something is not going to collide with the Earth it is possibly going to eat the Earth!

Try reading th article silly...

I am not worried so much about the black hole but what might come "thru" it. Or even what we will learn "from" it. Are we ready to really understand the nature of space and time?

Me thinks not when I see what our leaders might do with that knowledge...

Donnerboy sorry but Anna Nicole Smith isn't alive anymore no worries about the earth being "Ate Up" at all.

Larry

Our planet is not at risk from the world's most powerful particle physics experiment....

What a relief. Guess I can go to bed now and sleep like a baby.

When the LHC comes on line, it will have a good chance at producing the Higgs Boson.

The Tevitron at Fermi has been looking for it, but at 144 GeV it will probably take the LHC to find it.

Some good science is coming, almost as soon as they get the beam calibrated.

It's Tevatron, Roy.

You're still here, Galactacus.

When they tested the first atomic bomb there were cconcerns that it could set off a chain reaction that would destroy the earth, ....so they dropped it anyway!

This collider could create a tiny black hole or blow up the earth ....but they will do it anyway!

Self destruction is in our nature. Eventually we will succeed!

"You're still here, Galactacus."

So are you, PWZ troll.

Colliders break apart subatomic particles. Stanford accelerates electrons, LHC & Fermi accelerate massively heavier protons. This requires more energy, yielding different dispersive reactions.

A black hole requires the mass of 6-7 suns exploding into a supernova before it can begin vacuuming the surrounding universe. There is no valid comparison between such dissimilar events.

This is just PR for the masses.

Self destruction is in our nature. Eventually we will succeed!

That theory would explain the lack of intelligent life on other planets, though at this point it's just as likely we're not very good yet at looking for them.

Douglas Adams would appreciate a universe in which civilizations only grow advanced enough to destroy themselves.

This facility, which relies on cyrogenics and superconducting magnets, failed once already. It wasn't designed properly, so they had to rebuild the whole fucking ring. Not very good PR, so you won't hear this discussed much. For all this waste its a good investment compared to Iraq. The US role is trivial.

The Texas Supercollider was turning into a similar disaster when Congress pulled the plug. Fermi Lab's Management was out of control. Congress always wanted to hold someone accountable and finally did it for once.

which also answers the question:

"where is everyone?"

very few civilizations survive the "tree of knowledge" though I find it very tasty!

When I was a kid we set off fireworks, cherry bombs, M-80s, homemade rockets and bombs. We flushed cherry bombs down toilettes, blew the roof off the Little League dugout, and set fields on fire to watch them burn. The rockets we launched sometimes blew up on the pad, sometimes went straight up, and once in awhile tipped over and headed straight at us. One of my friends had 3 fingers blown off. Why did we do all that stuff, because we wanted to see what would happen! Why did those scientists build the supercollider, because they want to see it go......BOOOOM....wow cool!!!

Call me again when the giant blue spiders begin to emerge from a crack in the Earth's crust.

The anti-christ will come out from the black hole.

It says so in Annienicolai 4:17.

But don't worry, cause Jeebus comes right behind her and opens up a can of Whoop-ass on the sinners of the world.

In other news, I killed a hummingbird on my back swing in golf today. Yep. Swung up...heard and felt this wierd lump, then smackalated the ball down the fairway. About a second later, a hummingbird fell to the ground in front of me. Reallllllly ugly thing. Nature was not amused.

But hey;

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish!

Darth Cheney wants the test run of the Death Star in......West Virginia.

If that isn't going to destroy the earth, then when is Jesus coming back?

Hey Larry, SHUT THE FUCK UP. you know nothing.

The collider is an underground experiment you fuckhead.

it has nothing to do with things hitting the earths atmosphere.

damn your dumb.

Fuck, go back to the first grade and start over, your that dumb.

Kuma

unforseen consequences.

Oopsy! Sorry about yer planet there. My bad!

Douglas Adams would appreciate a universe in which civilizations only grow advanced enough to destroy themselves.

Yes, he would at that.

Deth is chuckle fiercely at the thought as well.

Cancer or Sentience?

Is choice.

Be Well.

Experts: New Collider Won't Destroy Earth

The way scientists have bollixed some of the math for Mars missions, I'm not so confident. But who want to live forever, eh? Certainly not some of the flat earthers who post here!
