Im not sure where this goes but, What are your thought on the large hydron collider that is going to be used for real in the summer of 2009
Personally im scared out of my wites about this, lets say that colliding two attoms works and it makes a black hole, a black hole is suposidly a destroyed atom, well hasnt science told us atoms cannot be created or destroyed, there just there.
And what if the black hole starts to suck in everything around it like a black hole does, it means were just waiting for death,
i had a decussion about this with my mom and friend, and well i person would like to find out what happens, but not when im on 15. to much life left for living
if you dont know what the large hydron collider is

Well what are your thought and comments on it
Good or bad idea

I have the same attitude as I did the last time they used it.
I really don't care.
Don't bother panic buying or any of the other stupid crap that people do.
We won't all die and the world won't end.

But theve never collided two atoms, the last time they used it, they fired one atom just to see if it would work
so how can you be so sure the everything is going to be fine

It's atoms right???? Atoms, tiny tiny microscopic things that everything has got. Forget all the ridiculous sci-fi films and think. How can that destroy the world and create a black hole???
It just won't. This was a scaremongoring story started by the press, to get readers and buyers, and Oh look! It worked.
It won't happen.

Thats the only trouble with the human race if we dont know something we have to go and find out what makes what and so on.
Why cant we just let it be!
Curiosity killed the cat.
Well if my grade C physics is right a black hole is when a sun (much bigger one than ours) dies and becomes a tiny ball and the gravity around it isso strong it sucks the light too and crushes anything that gets sucked towards it.
their little tunnel thing cant do a black hole surley, and if it does it will probably only make the scientists hand get stuck in it :P

I will tell you what will happen. It will either break....again.
Or nothing. It will work, everyone there goes YAY!
And the scientists will take TWO yes two years to analyse their results to see if they can find the thing there looking for, which is called the Higgs boson.

I remember when I first heard about the hydron collidor in 2008, I was pretty freaked out too O__o I was like "nooo I don't want to die yet :|"
I really doubt we'll all get sucked up in to these black holes, because the world will end when we're least expecting it, not when we THINK it's going to end due to these damn f*cking big bang machines or w/e. Also, the ridiculously dumb media will make a hugeee deal out of nothing and try to get everyone worked up about it.
Due to my personal beliefs, I don't think the big bang caused the world to exist so therefore I think these mad scientists are wasting their time trying to unlock these "secrets" about the Big Bang.

This thing is as dumb as the whole 2012 conspiracy bullshit.
Nothing is going to happen, there is a chance (close to infinity that it WON'T happen) that a micro-black hole might form, but it will be smaller than even an ATOM. This would cause it to evaporate into nothing so fast that technically it will be gone before it even EXISTS.
Hurts your head doesn't it?
The world won't end when they flip the switch.

What ever happens why should I care? Nobody asked me if I agreed to it, nor can my opinion make others stop colliding atoms/experimenting on animals/eating knives. Just for the record, if I were the guy that decided about the Collider, I'd do it. The knowledge we can gain is worth it.

My thoughts are that anyone scared by the LHC is a gullible fool. The scientists involved live on our planet too, after all; if they thought there was real risk of the world ending, they wouldn't be doing this experiment, out of concern for themselves if no one else.
