    Really, really clever stuff.

    </p>

    Probably best to listen to the dudes who know what they're talking about rather than the tabloid scaremongers.</p>

    I'm safe here. I can see the world turning inside out and Bungle diving for his keyboard as Bingley goes down the hole.</p>

    Relax everybody. It'll be ok, I promise.</p>

    Does it mean we are worrying about relegation, unduly ????

    After all if the World ends on Wednesday we will all be like Man Utd, Arsenal, Barcelona, Real Madrid, DUST :D :D :D

    Not sure about that word "need".
    its not about needing to be unique.
    I dont need to tell others my view.
    its a public service
    :D

    it reminds me of...................

    the scaremongering over the Millennium bug !! -the tabloids have a lot to answer for-as does this and previous governments who have allowed kids to leave school with little or no understanding of basic physics

    Lets be right here

    The experiments taking place at the LHC are not basic physics.

    my point is...........

    that a basic understanding would hopefully mean that while people (including me!) might not fully grasp the science behind it at least they wouldn't fall foul of the tabloid sensationalists-and I have read-and not understood -Hawkin's book !!

    Don't really think this is a tabloid sensation

    It's just a no brainer to dismiss the theory. After all, if everything did end instantaneously you'd hardly be able to gloat that you were right!
