The giant new particle collider at Europe’s centre for nuclear research, which is due to start work on Wednesday, is being linked to spectacular spin-offs including improved cancer treatments, systems for destroying nuclear waste and insights into climate change. ... more
A nice bit of spin...off from CERN. I kinda think the whole thing is amazing, but also quite irresponsible. It would be great if they discover great solutions, but it does appear to carry some risks, I mean look what happened when we started to split the atom. They are actually basing the whole black hole thing on Professor Hawkings 'unproven' theory. We have enough realtime problems on earth i.e poverty/war etc that really need attention prior to us experimenting with colliding particles.
