All I know is that all of the experts agreed that the Titanic was unsinkable… and then something unexpected happened.

because it is a lie lol, cosmic rays are NOT quarks, WHICH is what CERN will deconfine, quarks form bose-einstein condensates, the densest matter on earth, responsible for ice-9 reactions, novas and supernovas. Cosmic rays are lonely protons. B oth experiments have nothig to do and that is why we made the lhc. We are doing experiments that have never happened on earth only inside ultradense stars provokinng often nova explosions thaat is the risk cern’s maarketing department hides

So the question is “what will happen if it works?”
But if you say that the moon gets hit by subatomic particles all the time and it does nothing, why try and reproduce it?

Apparently black holes have already been created at the RHIC http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/03/0318_050318_pin_blackhole.html
Considering that this was at a much lower luminosity and nobody really has any knowledge of the processes that form black holes, I think that making jokes about all this is very stupid. I think the danger is very real. Nostradamus might have meant: CERN turns from gold to ion in his famous quatrain. If that is true then its goodbye Geneva.

i think that the lhc is something that will change the way scientists interperate everything for coming centurys and the fact that somone wants to stop the further development of human understanding is because of ignorance. i agree with the authors explanation that even if mini black holes were created that they would just evaporate. because they do not have enought mass.

A lot of people annoyed me with the “LHC will destroy the earth!” so I told them “great; I hope they start it quick” and “wouldn’t that be wonderful? We would have learned something new.”
