Yes mate butthe problem is that the exper. at the LHC COULD destroy the world the scientists know that but they dont care and say dont worryscientists created car planes ships medications and so on things that never could destroy the world They work with the univers working with the LHC and dont knowig what will happen but they now the risk scientists ceated things like the Nuke and shi t nobody realy need things that ppl kill they are going to kill us all because they want to become famous

I can't wait for this dude. When in May? need specific dates.

Don't be afraid. Particles are too smole to hurt anyone.

so, i was thinking, this thing is round and looks a lot like the ringwrolds in Halo, and those things could have destryored the univers, so this thing is bad. and, it's not fair that they get that awsom intarwebs teh Grid, which is so fast and would be awsom for fraging some n00bs and should be free for evryone

Very interesting, someone translates this in French please!

Honestly what would this world be today if all the great minds would have stopped everything they did because people were afraid of what they were doing or said.We wouldn't have the great minds of Galileo,Einstein and Newton.I could go on for ever with names of people told to stop.We would still be sitting around a fire(scratch that because its to dangerous),thinking the world is flat,the sun revolves around the earth. We wouldn't have planes,cars,electricity,books,music and I can go on and on.

Your observations are accurate. I know of a physicist who worked at CERN that said the same thing. Noone is interested in ending the world esspecially not the atheists under these scientists. If there'd be a conceivable treath the LHC wouldn't have been built in the first place. In my opinion you might find scientists advocating against it. Scientists are humans too it's not that they aren't scared of the unknown. However finding particle physicists against the LHC experiments is very unlikely.

anyway...ill step back a little from what I said before. if there isn't truly at least a small group of scientists who want to stop this...its hard to take the risks seriously. if it is dangerous then at least a minority of the scientific community should say so...i spent some time on the web and it seems most of the complaints are coming from non-scientists. scientists are people too, if they thought this would end the world, I am sure there would be at least some objections

sickoftards (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

the fact is for most of us the advantages of such a project are not clearly visible, however that small sliver of ultimate danger, however slight, is enough for many of us to think...I would prefer if such things werent happening. It is not like there some external threat at the moment forcing us to engage in such extreme experiments.

sickoftards (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

sure...i only mean that from my understanding there are a number of scientists who are concerned about dangers, so when you say 6000 scientists, although that sounds impressive, those 6000 could be wrong. 6000 people have been wrong about lots of things. the fact is, there is a small minority, but nonetheless some scientists, who consider this project dangerous. given the fact the worst case scenario is ending civilization entirely, people are not completely unjustified in their concern.
