Large Hadron Collider: We Might Not all Die, Says BBC
THE LARGE HADRON Collier is going to kill us all, and the Swiss first. Fact. But hold on, the BBC has news:
“It’s seems the Big Bang CAN BE investigated without destroying the Earth.”
Who would have guessed that the scientists and engineers that built the massive contraption on the French-Swiss border had not put the planet in jeopardy?
Although Satan will rise…

Hey magnetite (if tite),beware of ms. percy’s large h. collider, not to go there.
Seriously, first actual collision cica. oct.17,08. YES there is a sml./medium collider. The predecessor in N.Y., U.S. has already produced some interesting particles
that they are not able to fully decipher yet.

oh my god! u guys r freakn me out!!!!! funny tho, any comments left b4 yesterday >wednesday< said, this is it guys…WE ARE SCREWED… so wer all still alive, waitn on 2c if we will make it 2 christmas. i agree that the LHC will probly prove nout more than a few additions to the periodic table! (we hope) if we are goin2die wouldnt everyone rather get on with ther lives enjoys or day2day normal crap that makes us happy???
love ur family, ur house, ur food&drink ….smoke ur brains out if u must, but enjoy ife like u already do!! we all gota go sumtime an a heart attack cud send ur ass 2 heaven b4 any kinda science project.

No one knows if the world was created by “the big bang” ( i guess “the big bang” was proably made up by one of the first people alive,, “oh who am i? whats goin on?”, “um i heard and bang and BOOM i was here, on earth..”)Yeah right! No one knows how we got here and we never will, if these “scientists” are that clever, they would realise its probaly just best to leave the world alone..

I lived through it. It happened today. Nothing happened

I am so scared right now that I don’t know what to believe. Are we going to die or not? All this news in the papers, on TV and radio is doing my head in. If someone out there knows some truthful answers, please say something!!! I am only 20 and it looks like im not going to be celebrationg my 21st next year. Sniff

I shouldn’t worry Sarah, but now is the time to invest in neck cream and eye cream,wrinkles are more of a bugger to cope with.
With the credit crunch now is NOT a good time to peg out, wait til interest rates are 5% or less
September 10th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
yo rodger, learn to write dawg!!! the end isnt for awhile so you have that time to learn!!
i mean what the hell is a shud?????? you from the south hommie????
September 10th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
What is all this stuff about wednesday (today).. they have only beemed the particles 1 way around the circuit…. the first collisions are not due for 30 days… We need to be worried if we will see christmas…… but at least we still have 30 days. Chris - Leicestershire (uk)
September 10th, 2008 at 11:57 am
We are going to be ok…..I hope.

the LHC is a load of balls- how can it possibly help human society??? i mean it like cost 5billion to make and you could have used it to like hellp loads n loads of people, - just what would this LHC proove???? - if u ask me it was a gaint mistake n waste of money

A NEW REVOLUTIONARY TIME MACHINE WILL BE BUILT WITH THIS LHC IN WHICH THE SPICEMEN OF THE LIVING BEING COULD BE SENT TO DISTANT GALAXIES BY REDUCING THE SIZE & NOT THE MASS OF THE SPICES
September 10th, 2008 at 9:16 am
the earth is small as a sand in the ocean so is the milky way in the infinite galactic way NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN ITS MY CHALLANGE SCIENCE HAS CERTAIN LIMITATIONS WHICH COULD NOT BE CROSSED BY THE HUMAN KIND BY ANY MEANS.SIMPLY FEW NEWER ELEMENTS WILL BE DETECTED, MAY BE HEAVIER THAN THE TRANSMUTATED ELEMENTS. OR SYNTHESISED ELEMENTS OUR PERIODIC TABLE WILL BE FULL OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS RATHER THEN THE NORMAL METALS & IT WILL BRING A REVOLUTION OF REDUCING THE SIZE OF THE BIGGER OBJECTS & WILL BE HELPFULL IN CREATING THE TIME MACHINE.

I’m a bit worried about Dangerous Dan; he hasn’t reported in …
September 9th, 2008 at 5:44 pm
I have stashed in my dugout… a six pack of Walkers crisps, a bag of dry roasted peanuts, a bottle of Smirnoff, 200 B+H, several ready=made joints, a bag of smack and a heroin mainlining kit.
May as well go with a bang.
September 9th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
pictureGirlLOo8 i tottally agree with u, its all pathetic, like 1 in a 50000000% chance of it happening, so stop worrying guys!

Forget the doom and gloom and check out my blog post about the ‘I survived the Large Hadron Collider Experiment’ T-Shirt. Let’s continue spreading the word

September 9th, 2008 at 8:13 am
I’m going to go get quite a large amount of cocaine and just get silly until Thursday, just in case something does go down.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Wow how pointless.
You reckon some scientists were sitting there thinking “OMG LETS MAKE SOME CRAZY MACHINE TO FIND OUT STUFF ABOUT THE BIG BANG THAT COULD POTENTIONALY DESTORY THE PLANET, I MEAN SCREW USEFUL STUFF LIKE CURING CANCER AND SOLVING THE SUPOSED GLOBAL WARMING ISSUE{which is apprantly all a consprisary anyways go see the Global warming swindle, turns out Al Gore Manages to read a graph backward}
I mean serisouly what is the point, its going to lead to more questions, which thier going to make more risks so they can solve those questions and it’ll go on and on. If they ever did find the answr, they’re not going to like it anyway.
Surely, ignorance is bliss, most people are happier beiliving what they beilive so they come to terms with life and its meaning.
How about they stop playing god and like i said get on with stuff that could improve life, not potentially destory it [small chances as they are, but the more they do it the chance is only going to rise]
Regardless, what i just said is bound to make no difference what so ever, but hey what can you do, at least i can leave the message of i told you so to the suvivors, if they are any.

Just been out burying some survival rations, in case.
Charles, what is the St Andre double fat?
September 7th, 2008 at 11:41 pm
Well if we’re all going to die i’m going to max out all my credit cards and drive my car into a large body of water.
If we don’t die….crap XD
I wish i had a LHC in my house it would be handy for doing the washing
September 7th, 2008 at 11:14 pm
It’d be funny if was some big a paradox, and scientists keep doing this over and over again. Creating and destroying the universe in one big loop.
And that my children is where deja vu comes from.
September 7th, 2008 at 9:50 am
How do we know what created the ‘Big Bang’ may be it was a group of scientists undertaking this very experiment and it has taken us till now to get here again!
September 7th, 2008 at 6:13 am
Going to rinse something fresh, freeze it in my Subzero, and then spin it very quickly in my largest collidor.
Relax for a few days and admire the view and walk in it. Picnic with cheese collection too: and especially the St. Andre double fat with a crisp autumn apples. Ah life is good.
Oh — oh there’s an sp.
I see.
Col-li-dor. What’s that again??
September 7th, 2008 at 12:18 am
Im scared now :S
But I guess we deserve it for finding things out man isnt supposed to know.
…If i go to hell, im taking those scientists with me!
lol
September 6th, 2008 at 10:30 pm
So, what we’re going to do is chill some atomic parts to NEAR absolute zero, accelerate them to NEAR the speed of light and then bounce them off one another in order to understand the Origin of All Things, yes? Sweet! I’m going to go out and freeze some cue balls and hurl them at one another in order to understand the game of Billiards. The Large Hadron Collider may indeed provide some answers but inevitably it will have us asking more questions than before. Hopefully they will be the right questions.
September 6th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
wat u talkin,…..
well well i still think dat i shud go n try out all dat i missed out on n just freak out till wednesday so dat i can atleast peacfull die….
uhh…..
September 6th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
this is all good and fun, but I do hope the world ends. And I hope it happens at a pace at which we can all have time to lite up that last joint and sing about the end. Its going to happen at some time, because if we do live for another 500 years, we will end up using our 20,000 or so nukes. so one way or another! cherrio

My theory is that the LHC is Dr Evil holding the world to RANSOM! http://tinyurl.com/6kfezl

perhaps blowing it up might be the better option, what with the Credit Crunch,the Nov elections and I’m sure there would be some football club who would appreciate the distraction?
September 6th, 2008 at 12:28 am
Thank you, Mic.
That’s really cheered me up.
My game-plan is to work myself through large quantities of food and drink in the coming days, so that when we get to Wednesday at least I won’t die wondering whether Roquefort is really all it’s cracked up to be…
