Either way, humans are not very intelligent even if we like to believe it. We use technology for our own destruction. Einstein's theory was supposed to be used for good. Look what we did with it...Bombed Hiroshima. With the kinda power they gonna manifest in that black hole, whatcha think we gonna do with it? War machines I believe. Either way, it's another way to kill one another if it is successful and we dont all die from the attempt to harness that power.

That's about as bad as the conspiracy theorists saying the world is going to end in 2012 >_>
I don't know about you but they seem to want to die REALLY badly.

So..
This means I can go pillage and stuff since we're all going poof in a few years, right? Right? :D
Anyway, I'm not too worried about it. I accept the possibility, but refuse to be affected. If it's going to happen, it's going to happen. There really isn't much we can do about it in this sort of situation. They've been trying to get approval for, what, 14 years or so? They've obviously got it, and they're going to make the most of it before any sort of political or environmental parties find a reason and/or way to throw a wrench in their plans. Again.
tl;dr: Come what may. Apathy can be a beautiful thing in the right context.

hahah lin, but that's different... 2012 was based on the Mayan calendar thingie... i don't think they WANT to die that badly...
it was such a great piece of invention that could forecast dates for millenias to come, yet it somehow stops working in 2012 (don't really know what date though...)
*hopes everyone remembered to bring Ygg leafs that day*

Oh they do.
It's commonly believed that 2012 was predicted to be a GOOD worldwide change. (Spiritual-wise seems to be what most believe)
The conspiracy theorists came up with the doomsday crap >_>
These same people tried to end the world in 03 (I think) and last year as well with some magnetic pole-shifting thing. For their 2012 ludicrous, they invented a planet that's supposed to magically swing by and throw everything off. Riiiight
...Yes, I looked stuff up awhile ago when I saw people were making jokes about it on Main and wanted to see what it was about.

We are all affraid of the unknown, it's normal.
But keep something in mind, we can't even predict the meteo correctly. Neither me or you know about what the outcomes of this experiment will be, but on the 10th it's only the test period that is gonna start (yes, you know..so we don't blow ourself out?), so no need to worry that much about this date.
The real collisions between the particles will start ~end october, and really you guys shouldn't worry much about this. I'm excited a bit about this experiment, because there's gonna be a lot of new discoveries
. We can't earn anything without risk, most of you guys wouldn't even be there today if ~400 years ago all the sea explorers would've said "Oh I'm too scared to go, I don't know what's on the other side!".I won't even talk about 2012, I've read a bazillion theories all different from one to another, so really it's gonna be a surprise and a REAL party if everything happens at the same time
. Should focus on the upcoming election for Canada and USA, that is sure to happen

The CERN has done a lot of great things over the years, they invented the Internet, they won some Nobel prizes, etc. let's hope they don't screw up, but for the most part I trust them.
What's more scary is the thought that someone could sabotage the particle accelerator, I mean 27 kilometres.. that's a pretty large area to cover security on.
