Does anybody truly understand science? Short answer is no. So nobody is allowed to talk about how it's going to destroy the world therefore destroying communication therefore destroying the world. I hope I just blew your mind, because I just blew my load.

More fighting in Iraq. Somalia in chaos. People in this country can’t afford their mortgages and in some places now they can’t even afford rice.

None of this nor the rest of the grimness on the front page today will matter a bit, though, if two men pursuing a lawsuit in federal court in Hawaii turn out to be right. They think a giant particle accelerator that will begin smashing protons together outside Geneva this summer might produce a black hole or something else that will spell the end of the Earth — and maybe the universe.

Scientists say that is very unlikely — though they have done some checking just to make sure.

Not surprising... you take the side that's provably wrong yet again.

I'm not supporting any side. I just thought it was funny that the scientists said it was "very unlikely" but they did some "checking."

well, the article is over three years old anyhow...

and it's not like they've suddenly decided to study the issue, they've been studying the issues for years, long before they announced any conclusions


but to stick to the topic, keep this thought in mind:

I was aware of how the old article was but your focus brings up some other observations.

No way you would see this type of sob story writing in the New York Times under this president.

"More fighting in Afghanistan. Libya in chaos. People in this country can't afford mortgages and in some places now they can't afford rice."

Secondly, the demotivator's hyperbole suggested that there were no "issues."
