How convenient. If you're right, you make money, and if you're wrong, we'll all be too dead for it to matter. :roll:

...

I take you on! Not really I am too poor. D:


My latest get rich quick scheme :twisted:

I say, just trust the thousands of smart scientists there. Whatever negative things we can think of about the LHC, those scientists will have already figured that out, plus a lot more.

Hey, the explosion we don't have to worry about. Yes, it can tunnel through 50 feet of solid rock. So they bury it 100 feet underground. And 100 is more than 50. I learned that in school.

No, a better thing to worry about would be diarrhea. One of the main killers of children.

Poor SSC, though. It would have been yet another example of why Texas wins. And is an example of why we lose.

I am going on the idea that, the risks have been assessed, and it is believed nothing bad will happen. If nothing bad happens we will have some GREAT information to work with, if something bad does happen we will be to dead to care. Plain and simple.

The idea is to break atoms into smaller pieces.


Ideally, this opens up a unlimited amount of possibilities.

EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG!

Just yesterday I had an interesting conversation with a friend of mine about the LHC, and came up with the result that if they succeed in the test and gather new information, everything (about physics) taught in schools, universities and whatnot becomes officially poop.

The information they will gather would be so much it would take them 5-10 years maybe even more to even COUNT howm uch they have.To go over it and document it would take up to 20 years...The information they would have would be CRAPLOADS of information. :wink:
