This man is an idiot... You do not do an experiment if it could cause unintended damage. I am beginning to think there should be protest against this experiment. It seems these scientists just want to play with their big toys.

PS: Why are they doing this on September 10th? Is there a connection to September 11th?
With all due respect, this post is highly insulting to those who made it their life's work to find out how the world which G-d created so perfectly works. Many of these scientists are religious because they can see that the world is just so perfect, it's just that the evil G-d hating scientists are louder because they are presenting the illogical point of view. Finding just how perfect G-d's creation is should be something that's encouraged. And September 10th is just a random day, how could it be connected to September 11th? Is doing anything that may (not will) cause somebody some danger illegal in September? Last I checked it wasn't one big conspircay.
In conclusion, what's wrong with the quest for knowledge?
Nic,
There is nothing wrong with a quest for knowledge as long as the repercussions are taken into consideration. It sounds like those who are running the experiment have absolutely no idea what the outcome will be . This is very, very irresponsible and patently wrong. Playing with these kinds of things could lead to irreversible consequences. Even the 'knowledgeable' scientists dont really know what they are doing. They are playing craps with the lives of the entire world. Do they really have the right to do this? I dont think they do.
I had no problem with the experiment and I believed that it will probrobly not yield any useful information. But when I read that they dont even know what to expect, and they hope for results which they didnt forsee, then I think they are idiots of the biggest magnatude.
I am a computer scientist and I know that if I do something wrong my entire system can be brought down. So I am very careful before I do something. It seems the scientists are just blindly smashing particles in the hopes that something will happen. This is dangerous!

PS: And 9/11 is always important to me because it is the yartzeit {anniversary of death} for my brother who died in the World Trade center. It has come to represent a day of death to me and if something, G-d forbid, happens because these 'scientists' game goes bad then I will be very angry.
