I wonder if they found my old army paperwork in it and some missing socks...
"However, even if the ball of plasma is a black hole, it is not thought to pose a threat. At these energies and distances, gravity is not the dominant force in a black hole.
Well, let's be careful anyway, guys. The world has lasted so long, it would be a pity.....
Maybe I read too much Sci-fi, but when those folks at CERN get their thingamajig fired up and running, I'll be a tad less certain that the sun will rise next morning...
Whew...had me worried there for a second. Glad to know people playing around with black holes aren't a threat.
"At these energies and distances"
What distance?
You do have an off switch right? Right?
Rev. Jesse and Kweise ( sp) must be chomping at the bit about this breaking news !
So this fireball last about 115 days??!!
Black hole? Reminds me of a bar I used to frequent.
Potential for a really cool military weapon?
I want to see if I can make one of these show up in my neighbors' house. It would be fun to watch when the police broke in trying to find them.
...W H O A .
Why are we making more black ho's? Aren't there already enough black ho's in the world? And why isn't anyone working to create some more white ho's?
What? Oh!
Nevermind!

FYI: If my memory serves me correctly Grant money for similar experiments was withheld a few years ago and the experiments were ordered to be stopped immediately while a panel of physicists examined the proposed experiments.
The reason why? What if a group of scientists working in particle acceleration lab created a BLACK HOLE that was above some level of stabilty (ie. large enough that it didn't immediately dissolve because of Hawking Radiation)?
Would it "run away" and devour the Earth? In other words, one minute I'm tying this message and the next mi.......................
The human race disappears without any warning. Poof!
Thought I felta tug in that direction, now I know why.
