End of the World?

This Wednesday CERN, the world’s largest particle physics laboratory will fire up its LHC -Large Hadron Collider. If it all goes okay dokey we’ll all be fine.

However if it should implode upon itself into a quasar – a compact region 10-10000 Schwarzschild radii across surrounding the central supermassive black hole of a galaxy, - it may not be so good for the weather in general

The good new is it may take upto about 4yrs before the evidence appears. Handily occuring therfore in the Transit of Venus, June 2012 and the Mayan Calander, or possibly 21st of December 2012 (12/21/12) .

In situations such as this I always recommend wearing a hard hat and a good pair of boots e.g. EN345 for existing styles or the new conformity test ISO EN20345 for recently certified or new boot products.

    Better check with OSHA for regulation safety gear as well.

    Good point Chad, European safety equipment regulations may differ from that in the USA. Unstable quasars, red drawfs and such like can cause a light burning sensation on sensitive skin types whom are close to volatile reaction cores

    OSHA: Occupational Safety and Health Administration – is the main federal agency charged with the enforcement of safety and health legislation.
