This serves absolutely no purpose at all. I am fond of the earth and wish to keep it for quite a while. I am so glad that for this set back. This serves absolutely no purpose at all.

Heck, how many have a degree beyond High school in any sort of science? If you want to be thought of as rubes, please continue your copy/paste job of all the arguments that were used 8 years ago when the Brookhaven RHIC went online.

Steve- The LHC wont be shutdown, sorry. But what do you care? If it creates a massive black hole and sucks in the entirety of existance, it will happen so fast you wont even know. So who cares? Plus, if it works, we figure out the secrets of the Universe. I see no downside. ray- Hawking is notoriously wrong with his wagers so good luck on “placing your bet” with him.

That the LHC never gets used at its full capacity. That some degree of sanity somehow manages to percolate itself into the human mind and replaces the current suicidal insanity. That the LHC gets shut down and taken apart. As well as the RHIP. You bet I’m holding my breath with fingers crossed!
