We noted in a previous post that some people are worried that when they turn on the Large Hadron Collider it will create a black hole that will turn the earth into a "shrunken dense dead lump of something called “strange matter” although we are doing a pretty good job of doing that anyways without any help from the collider.
CERN says it ain't gonna happen, and provides a old-school rap explanation (it's hilarious) of what they hope to find, below the fold. But just in case, thanks everyone, it's been a slice.
