Doomsday Lawsuit - Will Save The World From Black Hole
Walter L. Wagner and Luis Sancho File for Injunction to Save World
Walter L. Wagner and Luis Sancho have literally
filed to save the world in a federal court in Hawaii. The men claim that a giant particle accelerator called the Large Hadron Collider (located outside of Geneva) will produce a little black hole or even a “stranglet” that will destroy not just the Earth but possibly the universe. While some details have to be worked out, the benefit of such a claim is that it guarantees standing and offers a pretty wide jurisdictional footprint. There is still some question of what the contingency fee would be in such a case.
The Large Hadron Collider has been 14 years and $8 billion in the making to allow scientists to recreate conditions last seen a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang. According to some, it could also destroy the Earth by producing a tiny black hole or alternatively a “strangelet” that would convert our planet to a shrunken dense dead lump of “strange matter.”
There have been some past debates over this danger, but they have been rejected. Moreover, Wagner has previously demanded such relief. In 1999 and 2000, he tried unsuccessfully to stop the Brookhaven National Laboratory from operating the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

CERNs web site states that we have not been destroyed by effects of cosmic rays and micro black holes will evaporate.
However, cosmic rays travel too fast to be captured by Earths gravity, and Hawking Radiation is disputed and contradicts Einsteins highly successful relativity theory. Collider particles smash head on like a car collision and can be captured by Earths gravity, and relativity predicts micro black holes will not decay (Hawking called Einstein doubly wrong, yet it is Einstein who is repeatedly found to have been correct in his theories). There is currently no reasonable proof of LHC safety, LSAG (LHC Safety Assessment Group) has been trying for months to prove safety without success. I hold the minority opinion that it may not be possible because it may in fact not be safe.
Cosmic Rays from the legal complaint.
any such novel particle created in nature by cosmic ray impacts would be left with a velocity at nearly the speed of light, relative to earth. At such speeds, . . . , is believed by most theorists to simply pass harmlessly through our planet with nary an impact, safely exiting on the other side. . . . Conversely, any such novel particle that might be created at the LHC would be at slow speed relative to earth, a goodly percentage would then be captured by earths gravity, and could possibly grow larger [accrete matter] with disastrous consequences of the earth turning into a large black hole.
Professor Dr. Otto E. Roessler estimates 50 months Earth accretion time from a single micro black hole captured by Earth’s gravity (www.golem.de/0802/57477-4.html, translation at http://www.lhcconcerns.com/LHCConcerns/Forums/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=52)
If this thing is so safe, why arent CERN scientists allowed to express any personal fears they might have about this Collider?
Alleged in the legal action: Chief Scientific Officer, Mr. Engelen passed an internal memorandum to workers at CERN, asking them, regardless of personal opinion, to affirm in all interviews that there were no risks involved in the experiments, changing the previous assertion of minimal risk.
(Statisticians generally consider minimal risk as 1-10%).

Nothing in all my years has made me worry more than this issue ,its so simple actually ,its a no brainer ,there is a chance it could create a black hole according to einstein it could stabilize and grow therefore surely that is theory enough please people stop this thing from happening now for gods sake this could end us all who gives these scientists that right to continue on this it is madness i plead to the politicians the leaders of the world please stop this before its too late .
