Just did the math and the LHC (new) particle accelerator will be able to have collisions 140x as powerful as the Stanford accelerator. Maybe we are in trouble :ohnoes ---

> [@91 teg](#): > > hey were all still here…what a surprise They have not actually done it yet either. They completed a test in which they sent one particle one way and when they were done they sent another partice in the other direction. Next is when they will be sending particles in both directions at the same time. From what I have read even if a black hole is created it will be the size of a proton. Of course this is all speculation, who knows what will really happen. ---
