End of the World, 6 pm tonight?
« on: September 10, 2008, 04:35:11 PM »
Seems the particle thingy in Switzeland that causes blackholes is being activated tonight at 6pm SA time.   Anybody's thoughts on it?    Stupid risk to life i think.   So yeah, if i dont see ya, have a good afternoon, good evening and good nite.

When I was in year 6, it was thought an atom could be modeled with a basketball representing the nucleus, and tennis balls circling it about 1M radius representing the electrons. ie: the atom was mostly nothingness, and therefore, so too all solid objects.

By year 9, the tennis ball had been moved to about 6 metres away ie: the atom was more nothingness than had been thought. So too all things made from them.

By year 12, the nothingness in an atom had increased - in order to keep them in the same room, the basketball & tennis ball were reduced to a softball & a golf ball.

A decade or so later, it was a marble and a plastic map pin-head about 10M apart. Looking at serious amounts of nothingness making up all solid objects now. 

Last month I read something about some scientists suspecting that an atom may have no actual solid component at all - just energy. (Bloke named C.S. Lewis proposed this about 70 years ago, but as he was an english professor, not a physicist, he wasn't taken seriously..)

Anyway, smile !!   A billion or so dollars spent on making what is possibly nothing at all run around in a circle at high speed. A lot like public service regulations really.  I think it will have the same degree of impact..

Or it will start a run-away energy reaction which will destroy the world.

Oh welcome to the journey everyone... (http://www.safirefighter.com/boards/index.php/topic,1870.0.html)

Don't forget that the suggestion was made that the first splitting of the atom would consume all oxygen in the entire world...

Hahaha, I was waiting for the "Oh if only the money had been spent on Cancer/poor countries/feeding the hungry" brigade to come out of the closet.

I don't know why we are wasting our money on this either. If you want to know what happened at the beginning of the world, go read Genesis 1:1

...and dumping billions of dollars into poor countries fixes the problem. Ah, no. Money isn't the problem in countries like that.

And without pulling everything far far off topic, you can channel as much food/water/anything to a country, but it doesnt mean that its going to get to the people that need it. Persecution, genoside, warlords, corruption, fueds that have been running for centuries, its all pushing scheiße up hill. Perhaps things can be done, but its not a simple as "GOOD GOD! DONT SPEND MONEY ON SCIENCE! Throw it at a poor country!"

Does anyone else have this image in their head of these weird little scientist dudes, all with unkempt hair and mis-matched clothing, all harbouring deep anger towards society because they were picked on in school, in a subdued lighting, underground laboratory.
Now im guessing that no matter how new their laboratory is, the staircase creaks, the main door groans loudly when opened and there are pointless exposed electrodes, with electricity arcing between them at random times, doubtless there are lots of glass beakers, filled with all matter of bubbling liquids on bunson burners with steamy fumes drifting down the sides of the beakers.
Set high on the main wall, accessable only by a raised dais, will be a large bakelite handled copper guilotine style switch, as the lead scientist mounts the dais and makes his way towards "the switch" and destiny, the hand rubbing, twitch riddled, wittless minion scientists gather around, whilst aboveground clear skies are quickly darkened by the gathering storm clouds.
The caphony of noise from the minions reaches fever pitch, then ceases as he pulls the switch, immediateley the lights dim to near darkness, above ground lightning flashes and thunder rolls, the machine awakens and the scientist throws back his head and screams "LIFE, I'VE CREATED LIFE"

Errrr Jaff.
Time you took one of the blue pills, isn't it?
And lay off the red cordial too mate.
Don't want to start a demarcation dispute with HQ, do you ?    :wink:

I agree with Numbers. The poor will stay poor as long as there are
people who care more for themselves than those that they rule. Very
much doubt the collider will produce the results the owners hope,
but hope it will generate some useful knowledge commensurate with
its expense.

Or at least, that our extinction is quick !  :-D
