Is the world about to go out with a bang?
« on: September 06, 2008, 11:01:44 »

This makes me wonder :'(

http://www.theherald.co.uk/features/features/display.var.2441232.0.Is_the_world_about_to_go_out_with_a_bang.php

Our world could possably be in danger! :-\ although,  I've just looked into that Big Bang thing a bit more, aperently, it will be harmless, since there is no way they could/can produce the amount of energy in the big bang, if that theory is correct. However, the courts still have to make a decision to let this go ahead.

Just because it turns on on Wednesday doesn't mean anything is going to happen. They're just firing a proton round one way I think and it wont even be at full power. It is going to take at least 2 months for them to actually align the protons up so they actually hit each other. They're hoping to find stuff like the Higgs Boson and other hypothetical particles, and it might even make time travel possible when it goes full power. The huge energies created by smashing the particles together could, some scientists think, warp spacetime so much that it would go crazy and allow people to come from the future (they wouldn't be able to get back though I don't think). Its that same with the mini black holes idea, 14Tev of energy (Gev or Tev?) in a space the size of a proton. Big Bang "wop" oh dear black hole.

Well, I have heard talk about this. The consequence is if the Eruopeans fire this thing wrong, the whole world is going to explode. I am not a dare devil, so I say no ;D.

Anyway, relating to the big bang stated in the article, it says that the magority of scientists disagree, so that is a good thing ;). Don't beleive that since a few think that, it is true, because the majority really matters on a final descion.

I don't know Time stopped in Massachusetts Last night!

The TV froze the computer froze the clocks froze my watch froze and no cars went by.  It was like this for 11 minutes.  It was kind of creepy. :-\

The only scary part of that I can relate to is everything freezing. Cars never go by in me neighborhood. I live in a nice quiet community. That way, when we hear an alarm go off in the middle of the night, everyone calls the police ;D.

The world is NOT going to go out simply because someone fires a particle at a very low energy. There are far more energetic particles hitting me as I write this.

And theyre hitting you as you read this.

And hae been zipping around since time began.

Sleep soundly in your beds. Just some newspapers trying to sell copy.

Yes, and the F/A-18 Hornet is a fighter.

B2 has guided bombs, Hornet has laser guided missles.

Because I am sure the US finds this as a threat of life. We take anything out that could harm us. We have carriers near Europe, just send one out and put there bit project a little behind schedule.

Well, they havent gotten premission to do it. They can't just fire a particle generator gun.. thing because it could blow up the world.

Your Government is a sponsor in the project. A little bit of research would tell you that:

  • The people working on this each have an IQ that exceeds most people here
  • The people working on the project are learned scientists and know exactly what they're doing
  • The people working on the project know far more than whatever half-wit wrote the scare-mongering article you've read
  • The people working on the project are American as well as European, British, Japanese and so on
  • The project is co-sponsored by your own Government, Austin
  • There is no way any of the doom and gloom secenarios will come to pass
  • If you believe in the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny, then you might want to place some importance on these stupid reports

I'll also tell you that I know some of the people working on this project. At least two of them post on this forum from time to time. There are others on this forum who know people on the team as well.

I strongly suggest that you stop your warlike talk, Austin. I really don't want to have to lock this thread and issue warnings, etc.

To summarise:

The reports you have read are:
(a)
incorrect
(b)
scaremongering
(c)
not even any use as toilet paper afterwards
