That means that strange matter is very stable. [...] I don't feel knowledgeable enough to say things about the safety of the experiments to be done at the Large Hadron Collider. However, I have a thought experiment about risk-assessment relating to high-energy physics. Suppose experimental h.e.p. were to continue growing and evolving over up to the next million years. Imagine bigger and bigger colliders. The unknown remains unknown until it becomes known, roughly speaking. Sometimes evidence accumulates over decades, and other times a decisive experiment makes a big difference to what is known in a short period of time. What are the chances that up to the end of the next million years, there will be a (non-military, non-applied) high-energy physics experiment malfunction that will be the direct cause of 1 billion or more human deaths? If it's likely, how do we know or how would we know? If it's unlikely, how do we know or how would we know?
