[kj] Black Hole Chaos

[Neil Perry]

I really have to hear this Underworld track. I know you're going
to say "No you don't", Jerry, but it's the same compulsion that
makes me play OTG once every two years, just to check it hasn't
mysteriously improved while it's been sat on the CD shelf.

 It was on TV last night. 
 Was quite interesting. 
I missed a good chunk of it some I'm probably missing something fundamental 
out or have all this completely wrong but basically ... (switch off now if  
potanga-mangled science bores you) 
 The famous E = MC2 (Energy = Mass x the speed of light squared) shows that 
mass & energy are the same thing. 
Anything with mass contains a huge amount of energy & conversely massive  
amounts of energy can create mass. 
As Bill Bryson put it rather nicely in his brilliantly pleb proof, simple to 
understand 'A Short History of Nearly Everything' (which I highly recommend)  
"... if you are an average-sized adult you will contain within your frame... 
enough energy to explode with the force of 30 very large hydrogen bombs, 
 assuming you knew how to liberate it & really wanted to make a point" 
 We know all the sub atomic particles that make up everything, but not the 
glue that holds these bits together - that binds these little bits into 
solid, tangible things. In finding out they'll discover more of how the  
universe was made. 
Like this guy said on the TV, "It's too complicated to fathom out now, the 
easiest way is to go back to the beginning & look at it"  
So they're re-creating a mini 'big bang' 
 This thing they're building is 7 times more powerful that the biggest, erm, 
thingy machine (those things they fire atoms round tracks with) we have 
 today which is 6 km in diameter 
(Hosannas! I remembered the name of the thingy - particle accelerator! ) 
 in the hope that they will find the glue they've been theorising about.  
One side affect of this massive release of energy is the possibility of 
creating a black hole. 
They were saying that if it does create a black hole it will disappear as  
soon as it materialises. Phew! 
Thank god scientists are never wrong...

 PS - you bastard, I now have Europe's 'The Final Countdown' stuck in my 
head!
