When the Earth will be swallowed in its entirety by a man-made black hole.
Tomorrow, scientists will turn on the Large Hadron Collider, a particle accelerator, to attempt to recreate the effects of the Big Bang by crashing protons into each other.
I guess that I feel better knowing that scientists, and not John McCain or the Republican Party, will end the world.
To Progress...

I've been wondering who exactly decided it was a good idea to do this. Isn't there some international consortium of scientists who approve projects like this? I mean it isn't as if this is being run by someone like Ted Kaczinski. These are respected scientists who are trying to destroy us.
And here is a question that also needs to be answered: "The hubbub also has led some to question why billions of dollars are being spent on a physics experiment so removed from everyday life."
"removed from everyday use"?
We use the universe on a daily basis. We keep our stuff there.
They are examining how the on-switch works. Is that not worth some scratch? To make a weak science/religion comparison, this is like making light or murdering your brother for the first time. You know: primal.
And everything has been tested to hell and back for decades. If anything happens, they are awful sure what it will be. Otherwise there goes publication.
This same "the world goes boom" scaling apocalypse fear attended the Trinity tests and the breaking of the sound barrier. Hell, the same people who are worked in a frenzy over this are sure that gay parades summon hurricanes and praying makes a pipeline. Leave them apoplectic; its how God made them.
