End of the World 5.37PM AEST

The particle accelerator in Europe will be started at 5.37Pm AEST tomorrow the boffins want to recreate what happened just after the Big Bang. Some think that a small black hole will be produced that will swallow the Earth. What do you plan to be doing if the world is swallowed up by a black hole? for me it will be business as usual as long as I don't get swallowed up by my own black hole.

At least we might find all our long lost screws, nut, pens and tools.:cool:

How would we know if we had been swallowed up by a Black Hole :?.

Should Kevin Rudd have declared a 'Black Hole' holiday?

Do I need to do my end of month paperwork early?

Too many questions keep popping into my head :oo::oo:

Think I need a Bex and a good lay down.

If you watched Andrew Denton last night you would have seen him interview one of the Phycisists involved in the Large Hadron Collider project. One interesting point he made....the amount of energy released by the collision is miniscule. Most of the energy being fed into the apparatus is used to cool it down to its working tempetrature (-271degC).

All the talk of black holes and Switzerland disappearing off the map is the product of conspiracy theorists who dont have a clue what the LHC is all about.

See here for the facts:

I think they should turn it on on the weekend, then if we get trapped in our last minute for ever it can be sitting in the sun, or bushwalking or woodwork, not answering another (^%#@$ email at work.:rolleyes:

Would we miss Switzerland?

I am already in a black hole.It's called Moomba.

I would just bend over and kiss my own black hole goodbye.... Except the world actually ceased to exist at midnight 2000. Unfortunately we have all been too busy to notice!

Have to make sure that I am not on the crapper I don't think I can manage two things at once........disappearing up a black hole and .............:oo:

A nihilist existentialist may argue that you cannot destroy what did not exist in the first place. Kant, Sartre and Nietzsche come on down!

Emmanuel Kante? He's an old ant.
