If you will take a look at that small exhaust port in the centre, well that's the weakness we've identified. A small one manned fighter should be able to fly down there and...if you build something that looks like this

I never thought I could agree with JAG. Oh well, lets hope that those Earth lovers stop their mad test.
As the Daily Mail should have said anyway - it is all irrelevant as there was no big bang in the first place! God made all this stuff, silly scientists!

This is true, and no doubt the "its safe because the earth is here" theory is a sound one. But the facts & figures they're using are scary no matter how you look at it, 99.99% the speed of light, 600million collisions a second, simulate can't think of the right word the big bang one billionth of a second after it happened.

My father worked on that, it couldn't possibly go wrong.
However, if it does, it will be just in the middle of my exams, so at least I won't have to work for the other half!

I really hope not. We have spent so much money, time, and effort on nuclear weapons that it would just be a shame if some physics project got to destroy the world before nuclear holocaust did

I think the person to make the last Backroom post before the world ends should get some kind of prize.

it's going to take about 4 years for the micro blackhole to destroy earth. so we have a while.

No offence Big_John, but I was rather counting on just Alizee and me being left with the onerous task of repopulating the ravaged earth.
Damn, damn, damn.

Does it worry anyone else that a machine capable of ending the entire universe has the instructions taped to its side? With one set pointing in an entirely different direction to the previous set?

Well since Paddys is no longer taking bets on the black hole perhaps you and Alizee can enter yourselves as candidates for this oneNo offence Big_John, but I was rather counting on just Alizee and me being left with the onerous task of repopulating the ravaged earth.
