I’m still here, are you?
There was some talk about the world dropping into a black hole when the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) was fired up for the first time. I happen to be half-way around the world from the site of the collider, but it seems that I still would know about a black hole devouring the Earth by now if it were happening.

This is cool stuff, and I look forward to hearing more from these folks. Hopefully they’ll report their results in terms that normal people can understand.
