This new experiment thats going to take place MAY 2008 (which was originally suppossed to take place Nov 2007 but got posponed because of an accident where a huge magnet broke off due to mathematical mistakes by the physicists) has to potential to put our whole planet and way of life in danger. It has been theorised and agreed by the physicists at CERN that mini black holes could potentially be created by the LHC , but they theorise that will be tiny and will just evaporate , however , there is also the possibility that they will not. If a mini black hole were to be created and it doesnt evaporate by hawkings radiation (which it's existance is actually debatable) , then a mini black hole has the potential to grow and by swallowing all matter around it , which means the earth. This experiment has the potential to create a black hole that will swallow the earth and everything in it, why is this experiment being allowed to take place ?

And on top of that , the LHC cost 6 billion dollars to make. All this danger is just to find the higgs , a theoretical particle which physicists say exists in a effort to explain how energy somehow turns into matter/mass. But is finding this out really worth risking our planet and the live's of every single human alive ? Is scratching the where do we come from itch that important ? Well to most of us , of course not , some could care less , we are alive , and enjoy living our lifes , many of us have families , and spending our time with them is more than enough to satisfy our being. Is it ethical to have a few individuals decide for the whole world weather or not the risk for this experiment is worth taking ?
Shouldnt the people have a say in weather or not we want our scientists conducting such dangerous experiments ? What benefit will come from finding the higgs ? The LHC goes on in May 2008 , there is less than a month to stop it , but it shouldnt be allowed to continue. Spread the word.

LOL

There are so many "if"'s n that ths call for acton, ran out of "i"'s and "f"'s for this sentance!

Did you know that the same theories that predict the existance of mini black holes also state that everywhere in a constant state of mini black hole production and evaporation? What the LHC is doing is no different than what Quantum Mechnics states is happening right now in your body!

Lol - I guess there always will be some people which won't like a project you're running...

But well as I know a professor who worked / works on the LHC a bit I can ensure you that he's not eagerly looking forward to being sucked into a black hole... ^^

Enjoy your meal

Isn't that what they are aiming at?

who sais hawking radiation was questionable?

Will this experiment end like the game half-life?

ok sorry.


ps edit. I dont bother much, humans will be ending up destroying almost the entire world by themselves, im still more affraid that some countries will decide to push the RED BUTTON sending nuclear ICBMs on each other THAN this 6 billion test that pretty much can fail and nothing happens.

Or suck everyone into nothingness.

Great! I always wanted to see the "other side"

Maybe we all end up in a giant Biergarten with hot stipper babes....

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
