I still think that, as big a mystery as the Big Bang is, and despite there being arguments for and against it, the mini Big Bang experiment this September is a bad idea. I mean, there's like, 3 or 4 ways it could plausibly end the world.
And AM, join the queue. Now you too know what it's like to be betrayed by that great big cheater Max!

When trains were invented, people feared that the great amounts of momentum would cause the passenger's blood to seep out of them causing them to explode. When space programs were started, some worried that all of the direct radiation from the sun would isntantly kill the astronauts once outside of the atmosphere. About a decade ago, people thought that when the clocks reset for the new millenium that computers would go berserk and fire every nuclear missile in the world. The LHC is no different. Nothing is going to happen, nothing bad at least. From what I've read, the same reactions that are going to take place have been constantly happening throughout the cosmos, even in the Ozone layer when solar dust collides with it.
