Apparently...

Just casually IM'ing to my mates, discussing stuff, when I see someone with their screen name 'We could all die in 7 hours!'. As you can imagine, this interested me, as it would other people, so I got talking to the guy (mentioning no names), and dicussed this topic a little further.

(17:50) [URGENT] We cou: Black holes are sometimes listed[who?] among the most serious potential threats to Earth and humanity,[46][47] on the grounds that:vvv

A naturally-produced black hole could pass through our Solar System.
Although it is purely hypothetical, a large particle accelerator might produce a micro black hole, and if this escaped it could gradually eat the whole of the Earth.
(17:50) [URGENT] We cou: I quote the last part
(17:50) [URGENT] We cou: a large particle accelerator might produce a micro black hole, and if this escaped it could gradually eat the whole of the Earth.
(17:50) [URGENT] We cou: A large particle accelerator is exactly what that thing is.
(17:51) [URGENT] We cou: And it's being turned on in 6 hours now.

(17:53) [URGENT] We cou: If it works, we live.
(17:54) [URGENT] We cou: if it doesn't we die.

- person added
(18:10) Oooer: Ummm, how will we die?
(18:10) [URGENT] We cou: Ok.
(18:10) [URGENT] We cou: For phisics experiments.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: Scientists are bulding this big.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: Large Hadron Collider
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: Which can split particles and all sorts.
(18:11) Oooer: Ok.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: And apparently.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: If they do it.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: And it's got enough power or somthing.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: It will make a small black hole.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: WHich will eat the earth in a matter of minutes.
(18:11) [URGENT] We cou: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_h...oles_and_Earth
(18:12) Oooer: But they obviously wont do it?
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: Read that for more info ^
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: They are doing it in 6 hours mate.
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: http://www.lhcountdown.com/
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: This is the law.
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: Funded by the government.
(18:12) [URGENT] We cou: It's only a 50% chance.
(18:13) [URGENT] We cou: That it will do that.
(18:13) [URGENT] We cou: But it can happen.
(18:13) Oooer: Hmm..
(18:13) Oooer: But surely they wont activate it
(18:13) [URGENT] We cou: Oh shit.
(18:13) [URGENT] We cou: I might be wrong.
(18:13) Oooer: ?
(18:13) [URGENT] We cou: The countdown timer was set to the 15th of May because there was no definite time given for the actual activation, recent events show that CERN wont be dividing by zero until much later on in the year, so now the countdown timer will be reset again and will be continually tweaked to go by the latest info that CERN are releasing.

Here are some useful sites you'll probably want to view, before actually making a debate, or some sort of comment on it.

It's no longer in 7 hours.

why would a particle colider cause a huge point mass? thats just silly, you make it sound like its a black hole generator with a flimsy spiderman 2 shield

[Ramuthra]
