The Berkley trees are so yesterday...
I was thinking that maybe the collider was leaking the much lesser known “idiot particle” all over the place.
The media, however, has promulgated some rather bizarre and frightening scenerios.
that’s amazing!
i wonder when the “progressives” became reactionaries?
during lenin’s time technology was considered positively.
mao i remember reading long ago wanted all technology, so that humans were relieved of physical work.
but sometime before ayn rand wrote “the new left, the anti-industrial revolution” (essays of the early 1960’s),
the left became reactionaries.
I hadn’t seen or heard the term “Luddite” for 40 years since a lecture concerning the Industrial Revolution in
grad school. Thanks, I had to look it up!
Arrogant Euro-weenies, not content with having started two world wars, now seek to create a black hole.
Brilliant.
Being concerned about this irresponsible bit of idiocy, is hardly the concern of luddites.
These morons could end life on earth. Earth itself even.
Any of you scoffing at the critics, pro-life?...
6 billion of them, hang on whether these maroons have done their math right. And a theory, that a black hole, once created, will somehow “evaporate”.
If light itself cannot escape the gravity of a black hole,
how exactly can one “evaporate”?
Why threaten death? If the wackos are right, we’ll all be dead tomorrow anyway.
Well, tomorrow is the day.
It was nice knowing you all.
Bye
Jim was right all along.......
(as if I needed it - /s)
I will bet anyone on this thread, or any other, $1,000,000 that the world will not end from this experiment. If any of you are so sure that it will cause the end of the world come and bet. After all, I can’t lose. If the world ends, I won’t have to pay, if it doesn’t end someone will owe me a million. So, any takers?
“Wilczek said doomsday fears about the collider are unfounded.”
Let’s find out — push the button, dammit!
Doesn't feel any different, does it?
I learn further that 20 European nations have contributed...... but wouldn't you know- oh yes, "The United States and Japan are major contributors". They have observer status. The cost?
$10 Billion US dollars.
I guess I will have to join Ned Ludd at work tomorrow. (joke) That money could have fed a lot of starving third world people.
this story reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut’s “Ice 9”
Bummer, Dude.
