And one day before the LHC switch on, due to the Indian news coverage spouting garbage that the LHC would bring about the end of the world, a 16 year old girl in India killed herself because she did not want to see the people and places she loved sucked into a black hole that was never going to happen.

There were children terrified on that day and bawling their eyes out because of this coverage about a doomsday machine.

I even find the thread title tedious

So when people go hyping things up and playingon fears, do they ever think about the consequences of their spouting of utter garbage.

Remember a 16 year old girl was frightened into killing herself. As she was dying from the poison she took, that was why she did it. No other reason, just what the Indian media had been spewing out about the LHC.

As for the LHC, this is essentially a large civil engineering project and you expect to hit snagging issues when a system goes live. This is a non-story.
