"They're being done continuously by cosmic rays hitting our astronomical bodies, like the moon, the sun, like Jupiter and so on and so forth. And the earth's still here, the sun's still here, the moon's still here. LHC collisions are not going to destroy the planet." from MSNBC The doom and gloom angle is so frikkin stupid, I can't wait until it gets started and nothing happens for a while and this all gets forgotten. Seriously what idiot or idiots is trying to have this thing shut down? Someone needs to give them some books from stephen hawking or Brian Green and tell them to come back when they're finished. |
Amen brother! Rolstoppable also posted something on this (he was just reporting news though, I didn't think he believed it) and I already called out that thread. The media is just retareded. Good news is no news indeed... all doom and gloom with them. Remember Y2k? That was so stupid. It got me kinda worried, though I was 8-9 at the time.
