If the world is not destroyed and all is the same, it doesn't mean that you
don't have a reason to be worried...Unless you just don't care about
anything
going on around you?

What if you can prove that the experiments conducted at CERN can
destroy the world? Will you worry about it then??

PS: I'm not saying that the people who are against the CERN experiments
are right, but I applaud that they care...

Now there is a classical leftist weenie attitude; intent is more important
than results. Because the intent is pure, results don't matter.

Well, that's the important thing, now isn't it? The science behind a
thing doesn't matter, it is the warm fuzzies that make the world go
'round........
WOW!

There is one difference. The small black hole will not be stopped by
anything. So gravity would pull it toward the center of the earth; on
its way it will undoubtedly encounter more matter which crosses the
event horizon making it bigger. So if it doesn't instantly
vaporize... AND isn't contained in the field of the accelerator, it
will travel to the center of the earth, oscillating back and forth
many times eating tiny wormholes (the earthworm type, not the StarTrek
type) through the earth. If the center of the earth is liquid, these
wormholes will collapse and the consumption of the earth will continue
from the center out.

On the other hand, if Hawking is right, these black holes may exist
for such a short time that they are still confined in the accelerator
when they expire. After all, the fact that they are black holes does
not mean they aren't still protons. They will continue to follow the
curve of the magnetic fields they exist in.

Today is March 23, and I personally am not in "cosmos".

When making idiotic predictions, do what Nostradamus did: don't
predict anything within your lifetime, predict 500 years ahead. And be
imaginative.
