Stop harshing our mellow.

[Creamcorn]

Supercolliders much like this one have been in existence for a number of years now.  There's no amount of power available on the world to power something of this magnitude for long enough to destroy ITSELF, let alone the entire world.

Eh, let's say hypotheticaly that some alien civilization watching over us decides we are too stupid to use something like the LHC. Probably because we will just kill each other by using it. Hypotheticaly we would have been saved by them or it could be they secretly sabotaged the LHC.

Though it is eaiser to take the more sensible answer, untill than! I will play DF like an insane person.

I thought tool the first time I saw it, but there is an overwhelming argument that it is actually twat.

Also, prepare for unforseen consequences.

Yes, that's the LHC.

EDIT, it's unforseen. Stupid G-Man using strange words. There's no such thing as a forseen consequence.

"Don't worry gentlemen, we have Gordon Freeman working on it."

It's not his fault that he wasn't able to save the world... both times... crap.

Allright some funny stuff!

btw, what's a Haydron? Is it some new subatomic particle?

it's hadron without the 'y'

and from wikipedia:
In particle physics, a hadron (pronounced /hæːdɹɒn/, from Greek ἁδρός, hadros, thick) is a bound state of quarks.

Hehehe, in the source code:

Code: [Select]

<script type="text/javascript">
if (!(typeof worldHasEnded == "undefined")) {
document.write("YUP.");
} else {
document.write("NOPE.");
</script>

Darnit. You beat me to it.

Are there any subatomic particles that aren't hadrons?

As I think sjmarshy was saying with "a hadron is a bound state of quarks," quarks are not hadrons, they just compose them.

there are subatomic particles that are not hadrons, simply because they are not made up of quarks. obviously, one of these particles are the quarks themselves. other than that, the electron is also not a hadron, its from another 'family' of subatomic particles, the leptons.  the lepton family also includes the muon and the tauon. ...

i could go on and on copying stuff from wikipedia, but i think that's enough to show that there are MANY particles that are not hadrons.

My bro just sent me this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50ZssEojtM it actually explains it very well though not in much depth.

no shit? xD

If you didn't look at the google link, note that this thread is the number one result for "haydron"
