Apparently they are turning this super particle generator on to try to make a black hole this month

I especially Like this bit

"It would be wise to consider that the more powerful the accelerator will be, the more unpredicted and dangerous the events that may occur! We cannot build accelerators always more powerful with interactions different from natural interactions, without risk. This is not a scientific problem. This is a wisdom problem!"

I remember reading in wikipedia, that theoretically it can destroy the Universe.. so I hope it doesn't

No one is sucking the earth into a black hole, there are still sites to build. Although I'd have to admit, I wouldn't want to hear the word "whoops" while they're experimenting.
