Thanks for link...

How many problems have they had with this thing leading up to this point?

[skinkinthegrass]

Whew! We survived. /sarc off
...of course the Eviro-Weenies, are protesting / scared.

Oh fer cryn’ out loud....Like it’s going to rip apart space-time and we’re.....uh....I hear something......

[TheWasteLand]

Don’t cross the streams. It would be bad.

[Bernard Marx]

shrugging off speculative fears that it could destroy all life on Earth by sucking it into a black hole.

It would just be sooner rather than later. Everything in the Solar system will eventually be consumed by the black hole at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. It's gonna' be HEAVY, Man!

[Still Thinking]

Well, at least then they’d LITERALLY be throwing tax dollars in a black hole!

[BBell]

Might be of interest.

This is why we have never encountered any spacefaring civilizations. Long before they perfect fast interstellar travel, they invent something like the LHC, fire it up, and promptly obliterate themselves.

We’re DOOMED...DOOMED, I SAY!!! ;-)

Let's see: The world's biggest machine moving the smallest particles, which no one can see, to understand matter far off in the universe that no one can see. And to do this it uses enough energy to power a small city.
I think I understand.

[Secret Agent Man]

Any Christian knows this is not going to destroy the planet.

It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
