Hadron Collider

All in the name of science. Sure this will no doubt lead to new discoveries much like other colliders but to possibly make a black hole here on Earth?!?! I mean, come on.

Particle physicists are confident that dark matter is a new family of exotic particles that do not interact with ordinary matter. But I look at that with the idea that when you're a hammer, all your problems look like nails.
