I was at my mum's hair salon yesterday getting a rare haircut, and the stylist was telling me that reports of "the big experiment in Geneva is going to kill us all" was all over the news. She said her kids and husband were joking about it[1], and her younger children (around 10) overheard and have been scared s**t about it.
Now, my friends and I have been joking about the LHC doing this for ages, but we had no idea that anyone was taking the "end of the world" suggestion SERIOUSLY.
Apparently on TV they were asking a scientist about whether or not the experiments would find a cure for cancer. I wonder if the Daily Mail has anything to do with that...
[1] We thought it'd be perfect if there were a storm today, and the power went out, so many people would just s**t themselves.

Well we are still here right? Or is this event planned for this evening?
I'd better go do some shopping for dinner tonight and a bottle of red wine.
And thanks for the reminder of that radio show dear Rob sir!

The beam is on going round one way, the collisions don't start for six weeks or so.

My mistake: the beams each way have been tested, but I'm right that the collisions aren't scheduled to start until October 21st.

Phew! Was getting kinda worried there that I'd miss the next 2 Spiritualized gigs on account of this.
Dunno about youse, but if the world don't end I certainly want my 6 billion back.

Is all this brought to us by the same people who were responsible for informing us that planes were going to fall out of the sky and nations were going to implode at the Millenium?

1) Stephen Hawking has $100 that they won't find what they're looking for.
2) If colliders can produce black holes, cosmic rays (and particularly ultra-high-energy cosmic rays, UHECRs) should have been producing them for eons, and they have yet to harm us
3) Still doesn't mean I won't be taking the p*ss to the ignorant masses though

No hang on folks this is no laughing matter. I've just seen the dutch news report as what they are wanting to prove in theory. Good heavens...what happens if when these thingys collide underground and then we have a core man-made problem that will have effects on the surface.Obviousman wrote:Oh, thanks, I'd just comforted myself, but now I don't knowmarkfiend wrote:The beam is on going round one way, the collisions don't start for six weeks or so.
Someone wise once said we shouldn't try and understand nature just let her be but no what do we do as humans? We don't listen do we and trust me in this same breath I also am so for what science can prove from what we can actually explain... but some answers to theories are just ... can't we prove these huge bang effects on ground not under us but like way way far away?
Good heavens all of a sudden it doesn't seem such a good idea but hey I can't stop it now.

Why should we not understand our lives?
If nature didn't follow these rules, then we wouldn't be able to find them out.
Don't believe all the sensationalism in the news, they want everyone to believe we'll be sucked into black holes, detonated, turned into a lump of strange matter.. it won't happen.

Good heavens...no the dutch news is very to the point kind of thing happening everyday in the world kinda thing. Even I know no one will ever pin pick the exact date as it's because mother nature is just so unpredictable as well as adaptable that's what makes her unexpectionable.
We'll probably kill each other before she goes anyway at the rate we are going....meaning the outside world.
