This whole scare about the Hadron Collider is absolutely ridiculous.

The problem are the people who know nothing about anything, getting freaked about what some other people who know nothing about anything, make up and try to pass off as facts.
Despite the fact there are many other particle accelerators that have been operating for many years. People get all worked up over this one cause it's a little larger. Do they realize the 1st Hadron Collider was up and running back in 1971?! Gee guess what...we're all still here!!

This entire thing is no different than the Y2K scare or the idiots that said the world was going to end in 1999 (or any other year they decide upon).

This is a big pet peeve of mine...people being scared of things they don't understand. You'd think people who love reptiles that have to put up with this very thing from all people around us, wouldn't be so quick to turn around and do the same thing.
