If that guy destroys the planet I am so suing his ass.

Well, if the collider wants a shot at causing earth-swallowing catastrophe it's going to have to hurry up. At the current rate, the political conversation CP is having on the phone with her Air Force enlisted brother may very well beat it to the punch.

I read a great book that has a plot about this or a similar collider called Blasphemy.

If you like science fiction - I recommend it.

From Publishers Weekly
Like Isabella, a giant superconducting supercollider particle accelerator, the thought-provoking new thriller from bestseller Preston (Tyrannosaur Canyon) takes a while to power up, but once it does, this baby roars. The ostensible goal of Isabella's creator, physicist Gregory North Hazelius, is to discover new forms of energy, but what he really wants is to talk to God. The project, located inside Red Mesa (a five-hundred-square-mile tableland on the Navajo Indian Reservation), is behind schedule, so presidential science adviser Stanton Lockwood hires ex-CIA man Wyman Ford to go to Red Mesa and find out what's causing the holdup. Meanwhile, a Navajo medicine man, a televangelist and a pastor who runs a failed mission on the reservation are gearing up to pull the plug on Isabella before she destroys the earth. Science has often tangled with religion in this genre, but Preston puts his own philosophical spin on the usual proceedings, and when he gets his irate villagers with their burning torches headed for the castle, the pages simply fly.

Maybe I've watched too much Stargate, but that thing is freaking me out.

Okay, my entire "To Do" list is about eating.

The top of my "to do" list is: See what the inside of a black hole looks like so I guess I'm set.
