Jokes about a CERN black hole doomsday spam post

A crossposted alarmist message about CERN's Large Hadron Collider creating black holes prompted mostly jokey responses, including a NASCAR underground oval gag and Andrew MacPherson's Large Hillbilly Collider. Posters drifted into speculation about life in the universe and simulations. It ended with an old RAS story about Shift-R in GPL.

But what does it all mean, Basil? AC
Rod's work news 30 Apr 2008 21:39 UTC#3913
It's actually been misreported. They've simply built a European NASCAR oval and placed it underground so that weather won't be an issue (because NASCAR scheduling only includes one European stop .... so weather poses a real issue wrt costing the event). Grandstand seats will be plentiful .... but a bitch to get to. I've also heard rumours that ventilation could be an issue.

Awe come on - that was good stuff! The basic point is this - you will get super densities (which they are calling micro black holes) produced by making protons have head on collisions with a relative speed of twice the speed of light. If the gravity produced was strong enough and enough of these micro black holes occured close enough to each other then they could become a black hole proper. So what you say? Well then the entire planet collapses in on itself in an instant. Don't worry - you won't see it coming or feel a thing! :) "Bob Simpson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Most planets of our class destroy them selves not by war but by compressing the entire planet to the size of a pea looking for the Higgs Boson.

That was the base of my master plan(rejected by the bloody do gooders) when the nukes were a worry to the world's health. I thought, instead of cutting back, why not extend the numbers ? Make many millions of ICBMs and just cover every acre of the major cities on Earth.. We in the city would never know there was even a war. And since when do we actually care about rural areas ? ;-) ps: why is this xposted to drugs.cannabis ? Is that a required substance for this advanced level discussion ? I mean to Rasf1, by all means.. Max's next idea may be a black hole indeed. :-) -- Regards, Frank

Having said that, Nascar vehicles and their chubby drivers are so incredibly heavy we could probably save money by colliding them at low speed instead of atomic particles at very high speeds.

How do you know? The outcome of an infinite Universe containing an infinite number of stars with planets then by definition there must be an infinite number of planets which have the human virus... ... my head hurts ;-) -- Paul-B

Unless we're just a simulation of course. The possibility of us, as a simulation, being just a subsimulation of one of an infinite number of simulations, themselves running as subs in their respective infinite numbers of parent simulations notwithstanding, it is still only a simulation, and thus not real and so nothing to for us to worry about.. >... my head hurts ;-) >Hope this helped. :) -- Regards, Frank

However as life is inherently unlikely and unstable (ie ultimately self-destructive), I think the chances of any two planets anywhere containing life at the same time are close enough to zero to make no difference. The infinity thing is fascinating though. There are an infinite number of numbers. There are also an infinite number of just even numbers (or odd numbers). It therefore stands to reason that an infinite number of numbers ought to contain twice as many numbers as an infinite number of even numbers. There are also an infinite number of numbers between each number. Therefore an infinite number of numbers must contain (infinity)^2 numbers. Which all goes to prove that infinity is hard to fit into a box. Even a very big one. It's far simpler to just lie on your back on a clear night, holding onto the planet firmly just in case you fall off while contemplating the triviality of your lowly existence. Andrew McP

Allow me to split a hair.... Would intelligent life (assuming we believe that is what we have on Earth) on another planet be human? Would nature repeat the same mistake? Although, that could be a super duper from of evolution. In that only life that learns to protect it's planet survives. If so, I wonder how we are doing? Hmmmmm AC

No there are only a finite number of living creatures in an infinite space, as any finite number divided by infinity is so close to 0 the chances of ever meeting another living creature are so slim as to be irrelevant. (Probably a far more recognisable reference than the last one).

They wanted to build one in Texas or Ann Arbor Michigan a few years ago. It was cancelled because it cost too much IIRC, but I had the feeling big oil didn't like it. As opposed to my stand on going to Mars :-), I fully support this project. If we are to advance out of the petrochemical age as a race, we will need to take the next step forward, into the smallness of things, where the secrets of multi-dimensionality, anti-gravity, anti-matter and time reside. If you think the Atomic Age was the dawning of something powerful, wait until they figure out the quarks. I expect them to eventually gain control over anti-matter out of it. This project represents the future hopes of mankind. zentara -- I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. http://zentara.net/japh.html

don't mistake the actions of one mislead (though admittedly rather dominant) culture for a problem of the entire human race. (<== See, it's not off-topic, it has to do with "racing" ;-) Wether this one culture will take the turn for the better, we'll see, but humans have been roaming the planet for millions of years without bringing its ecosystem to the brink of collapse. These people had (some, in fact, still have) a different vision of man and his / her place on the planet and among the community of life, so there's nothing inherently wrong with humans as a species, whatever your culture tries hard to make you believe.

Yeah, this entire thing is one of those "in between 6" or even "in the middle of 6" type of things. ie pretty freaky stuff. What does this mean? Well, this is the part of the number line between the numbers 5.9 (repeater) and 6.0 (repeater) with a 1 on the end. Just thought I'd throw that in.

Put aside the entire theory of evolution - the human organism, as with every other organism, is clearly the design of other beings ie gods. And no, I'm not a silly christian cunt! Nor a silly atheist obviously.

They are attempting to break matter down into sub sub-atomic particles ie beyond protons, electrons, neutrons, etc. How they intend to detect something they have no knowledge of is anyones guess - it seems to me it will be like looking for a "something" in a haystack (at least with a needle you'd actually be aware of it if you happened to find it)! But I'll bet novices like me said the same thing when they were attempting to split the atom.

Ah, no - just looking at our solar system shows that not all planets are inhabited. A number less than infinity is finite. Any finite number divided by infinity is as close to zero as makes no difference, hence all people are figments of my imagination. Damn, I'm good.... E

"Use the Force Luke." No thanks, I'll use this steering wheel -- it cost a fortune. "Then move the slider, Luke... totally linear input is the Jedi's Way." But Master, my arms tremble with fear under braking. There'll be Force all over the hay bales if I use totally linear input! "Fear not. Trust in yourself. Be fast Luke, be *fast*!" <Luke grits teeth> <moves slider away from the middle of the scale, all the way to the left> <clicks green buttons> <time passes, usually sideways, with smoking tyres and much swearing> Master! "Luke?" Fetch Yoda quickly! I'm upside down. "Upside down? A Jedi must learn to see the world from all angles. Seek not to turn the world when all that needs turning is your perception of what is correct, Luke." <closes eyes> <tries to reposition sensory expectations> <opens eyes> Master? "What now?" I'm still upside down. "Very well then, you may Sh'ftah yourself... but only this one last time, mind." But my mother said... "Sh'ftah, Luke! I made no mention of warts and hairy palms." Oh, sorry master, I can't. "Ah, I have taught you well, my son. The Force is strong in you, you can no longer bear to cheat." Er, sorry Master. My Sh'ftah's been playing up for days. I think I've worn it out. Can you fetch me a spare keyboard? ********************COMMERCIAL BREAK************************* Keyboard problems? Look no further! In conjunction with Papyrus Software and whoever decided Win95 keys were a good idea, we here at Ronco are *proud* to announce the GPL Recovery Keyboard. Seventeen SHIFT keys to choose from! A massive *twenty-nine* R keys! You'll never run out of recovery keys again! And of course, like all Ronco's other products, it dices carrots and mashes potatoes for you! You'll never want to use another keyboard again -- we guarantee it! <two thonged lap dancers jiggle onscreen carrying a sample keyboard and a bowl of steaming potatoes. One tips the potatoes onto the floor (bending gratuitously towards the camera in the process). The other places the keyboard gently on top of the potatoes. Holding each other for support, the girls step carefully onto the keyboard, then jump up and down repeatedly. The potatoes probably get mashed, but who's waTcjiNg?> ************************************************************ "Hah hmmm!" Eh? What? "Luke, if you carry on dribbling like that you'll drown in your helmet. You're still upside down, remember? Here's that new keyboard." <car drops to track right way up> <A bead of dribble forms on Luke's chin. He starts to wipe it away> "No Luke. See how your drool follows the path of least resistance." <Luke goes cross-eyed trying to stare at his chin> "Watch it drip onto your cheap nylon overalls and run down the creases, seeking a final harmonious resting place. Let your car be that drool Luke. Let it seek the creases in the track as surely as... what's wrong now?" <Luke pouts> My leg's wet Master. "Stop whining. Next you'll be starting a thread about how unfair it is you're a cr*p driver!" Sorry Master. I promise I'll...

DO NOT LISTEN TO THE OLD FOOL! HE WOULD HAVE YOU WALK BAREFOOT IN A LAND OF SHOE SHOPS AND JANUARY SALES! Father, are you being cryptic again? I thought the suppositories and bran supplements were supposed to sort that out. LUKE, LISTEN TO ME! NON-LINEAR INPUT IS THE TRUE PATH. IT IS FOOLHARDY TO IGNORE HELP WHEN IT IS THERE TO BE TAKEN. But father, he says it leads me into bad habits. How shall I know which is the true path? And none of that drool cr*p, all right? FOLLOW YOUR HEART, LUKE.

Put slider a little over to the right, tried again and within five laps I *finally* manages a 1:09.80, my first sub-1:10 after a load of 1:10.19/23/64/83 steps over the last few days.

<Snip> Ah, yes! I lost that story a while ago, and I'm glad to have it back! It was the first thing I thought about after reading Asgeir's post. Thanks, Andrew! Cheers! Remco
