Don't worry you still have time to try out kama sutra positions.

I thought there was gonna be horses with wings and all the christians would be sucked up to heaven, etc... when the world was gonna end.

I was really looking forward to living without them around for a while.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
hahaha

morons

8 days?

I can hardly wait.

If Congress hadn't pulled the plug on the Superconducting Supercollider the world could have ended in the 90's.

This is awesome. I can't wait.

If it does go down the way the fearful say, it would probably happen so quickly that we wouldn't even have enough advanced notice to blog about it on the retort.

I think, according to the prophesy, for the literal interpretation people, if you know about it, that means it won't happen.

it says no man will know, right?

It is quite plausible that these little black holes will survive and will grow and eat the planet from the inside out.--

Are Karl Rove and Dick Cheney behind this?

But I thought all scientists were infallible, capable of creating life from anything available.

Enough already! Let's put some cash on it! Who's giving odds?

-We make a strangelet, and the entire cosmos goes boom.
-We rip through to the quantum vacuum, and about half the universe goes BLAMMO.
-We make a Hawking black hole that slowly eats Earth.
-We make an EPR doorway, and open a dimension to another dimension.
-God shows up and shakes his head at our wasting a few billion.

Window closes soon, get your money down...

the last time that i read one of these stories of the world's end, i got my credit card out and took a trip to europe. i'd even planned to be on london's big eye when the big moment came.
i've spent the last year paying of my credit card bill.
so i've looked into this story via a source other than the sun... and btw, no one should ever be able to link to a news story to the that newspaper.
in reading up, it'll appears to be safe as the black hole being created is only to last a moment in time.
that said... we've been wrong before, huh?

all the best.

Well-sense, I have to agree with you-no one should even read that rag-it's as useless as the pRezidense brain..

So yer you DID make-well-

Sense.

Haha... Take that Verizon FiOS, I'm not paying!!!

Watch the French botch the experiment, and the world will end... fuckers...

What, again? YAWN

Well 6,

Put me down for a gadzillion dollars that it doesn't happen. At least that way, I won't have to pay off if I lose.

If it does destroy the world at least it will stop this seemingly endless election year!

I'll bet that the "world" will still be here in 9 days and I'm not a gambling man.

9 days? Crap, I have a lot of shopping to do!

Charge .... it!

If it happens I wonder if I can get a refund for the weekend trip I had planned the weekend after? Probably not, I didn't buy that damn insurance.

It'll just feel that way to the GOPpers.....

Well with only 9 days left maybe the GOP will fess up to killing jesus. Evangelicals=guilty conscience?

whynot?

"It'll just feel that way to the GOPpers...."

They're in St. Paul, Northguy.

That makes them GOPhers.

It it is true maybe we will be teleported into a better universe where politicians don't lie and the earth is a safer place to live.

Cya!

There are no bigger liars in the world than so-called scientista. They have more arrogance and ignorance than the Church ever had. Someone should stop them and a bunch of wimpy lawyers won't be able to do it.

what's the problem with scientists? imagine your life without 'em. You'd be hunkered down in your cave, having a fight with another caveman over who gets to eat the leftover moose balls.

death by black hole? wonder what that's like? -- being smushed to the nth power. doesn't sound like fun, but I bet it'd be quick.

Hey jesus freaks! You might get to find out in a few days!

Rejoice!

But why wait?!? The Grand Canyon isn't that far away!

Jump for JESUS!!!

So, if you're on the phone with someone in France or Switzerland that day and phone goes dead, how long would you have?

It depends on your time zone, of course.

This might be the only hope the GOP has of stopping Obama in nOvember.

Yes, the theories behind the car you drive, the computer you type on, and pretty much everything else in your life are only scams. The nerve of those losers!

I'm beginning to believe those that think FWHThom is a spoof. No one is really that ignorant.

One can only hope.

"I'm beginning to believe those that think FWHThom is a spoof. No one is really that ignorant."

Aren't spoofs supposed to be funny?

you're all ... stupid.. they have ALREADY created small black holes in a lab. They've always created another universe in a lab.

you know what else they've done? They've teleported particles. Froze atoms to almost absolute zero. They've smashed anti-matter and matter together. How do you think they found out matter and anti-matter blow up when matched?

They've detonated a nuclear atomic bomb for christ sakes and the earth is still here. Those same Scientist were worried that the chain reaction wouldn't stop destroying the entire atmosphere.

None of that happened. None of it will ever happen because humans are too WEAK, MORTAL and SMALL to destroy a planet ya morons! The energy required to even remotely "suck" a planet is more than what is available on the entire planet of EARTH!

talk about an arrogant ego trip wtf!!!

End of the World?

As we know it?

How odd.

It's Bush's fault. Ask the shrill Dems.

he ain't smart enough. try again.

end of the world in 9 days?

please. pretty please. i double dare ya!

Damn. I'm picking up my new car at 3pm today.

End of the world in nine days? What a bummer! And I didn't even get to see Las Vegas.

"In one of the countless billions of galaxies in the universe lies a medium-sized star, and one of its satellites, a green and insignificant planet, is now dead."

Beneath the Planet of the Apes

End of the world in nine days? What a bummer! And I didn't even get to see Las Vegas

Let me assure you, that is nothing to regret.

Scotty! Beam me up!!!! Lets get the F out of Dodge.

Yep, the very idea that a group of egg heads could end the world with an experiment is nuts.. no question about it..

Sort of like the idiotic idea that human activities can cause global climate change.. right?

Yep, crazies are crazies...

"But I thought all scientists were infallible, capable of creating life from anything available."

And now we all think you're retarded.

"Sort of like the idiotic idea that human activities can cause global climate change.. right?"

Actually only morons like you are worried about it.

Libs bow down to scientists exactly like people who bowed down to religious leaders. Remember scientists invented the atomic bomb, put tetra ethyl lead in gasoline, and created thousands of toxic waste dimps.

Thoes guys are soooo smart.

Still one has to wonder even if the threat is minuscule; why not build this thing in space where if it goes "critical" it won't destroy anything but itself.

Added benefit is we would learn a lot in the building and increase our expertise in using space.

"Still one has to wonder even if the threat is minuscule; why not build this thing in space where if it goes "critical" it won't destroy anything but itself."

I imagine buidling it in space would multiply the cost by some ridiculous factor.

You think those things happened outside the marketplace? Scientist created shit because the market said they wanted them and then paid for them.

When the marketplace says we will use fossil fuels no more, the scientist will create other things.

But of course you don't say anything about man's life expectancy, which has quadrupled because of science. Or diseases that have been conquered because of science.

"Still one has to wonder even if the threat is minuscule; why not build this thing in space where if it goes "critical" it won't destroy anything but itself."

I would imagine that black hole right next to us is probably about as dangerous as a black hole actually on the planet...

A real black hole can swallow anything, including the earth. But, there is no such thing as a SMALL black hole. It might be the size of a basketball, but it weighs more than the sun. There isn't enough power in CERN's ring to make something like that.

How in the hell could they accumulate as much material as contained in ten suns to get a black hole started?

I am presuming we could build it say between the orbit earth and mars. I know I know we can't do that we don't have the technology blah blah blah....

We can. We could. We should.

Actually, January 20th, 2009 is more than 9 days away...

They are. Haven't you seen the VP canidate for the dems?

yes, but we've also seen pres. skippy for the last 7/12 yrs.

ahyes.........everytime I read something like this I think back to a land far away when we were told to curl up under the blackboard AWAY FROM THOSE WINDOWS because we didnt want to get a little glass on us when the ruskies dropped the "BOMB"

I am sure others will remember that too........

9 Days? Why Wait? Turn that sucker on now!

pack light!

They could stuff Rosie Odonnell in it.

Why do we waste so much money trying to determine irrelevant questions like this? Hungry people beg for food, unemployed people stand in line for food stamps, and children go unclothed in George Bush's America. Only the Republicans would throw money at this issue.

Sweet deal!!!

I heard it was going to be 12/21/12...

Why is this tool still alive? we can only hope medical "scientista's" refuse treatment when his ass gets sick.. cuz you know all "scientista's are arrogant and "stupid heads"

Good thing, just before my 1st alimony payment is due.....HA

Whos laughing now sucker?!

"End of the World in 9 Days"

And the bad news:

I've been trying to tell you this for a week!

Only the Republicans would throw money at this issue.

Yup, those darn rightwing Frenchies! Damn them and their conservative ways! LOL, methinks knowstoomuch actually knows very little - like how to read the article...

It's the end of the world as we know it!

And I feel fine.

uhm... spud said that upthread (#39), kinger.

*shrugs :-p

A real black hole can swallow anything,
