We're still alive...aren't we?  :D While we are we must be happy for this  :P
Do not get scared about dying this way! It will be a quiet way to die: you are playing PS, then somehow you'll die and there will not be any problem, if you think that there's been people dead suffering all the pain that somebody could have in the world...Or imagine somebody terribly worried about that who'll die the morning of the experiment squashed under a car!  ;)
Ok, I admit this: the day before the experiment I and my classmates said goodbye to each other and we also made our English teacher worried 'cause when she came in our classroom with some England and Europe maps we said "Don't worry, we'll not need them, this afternoon there will be a black hole and everybody will die...". The funny thing is that when we said that we were smiling  ;D... but it was only a bit of humor...  :innocent:
The thing is that everybody will die, so way should we get worried? And if the experiment may be bad for us, maybe it will be a good thing for somebody other. The funny thing in our life is that there isn't something that will be a good thing for everybody: it will be good for some of us and bad for some other people. Example: cars are good things, without them you'll need a lot of time to move in other places. But cars are bad things, too: we keep spending a lot of moneys for them and they pollute the air that we inhale. That's what I mean  ;)
The fine thing in this "theory" is that surely there will not be a thing good for everybody, but surely there will not be a thing that will be bad for everybody  :)

Thanks. (It could have been the best site ever if there wasn't neither the "NOPE.", and forever.  ;))

Gaian you give me pause. Something to think about for sure. Well said. Inhaling all the emissions from that car could kill or maybe we could be run over by it. Even a doctor could tell someone that he has a terminal disease leaving that person a short time to live. Therefore live like this could be your last day. Be kind, giving and caring for we do not really know what will happen tomorrow. If we live like this then maybe the world would be a better place to be, right?

Yes, you're right, Mathy. The best thing to do, if what I said is true, is trying do things that may be bad only for some rare cases, and the victims of these things shouldn't be the same  :)... it's hard, isn't it?
Backing to what I said first: think about all the residues that the Earth will diffuse in the Universe: maybe they will help new species to grow on other players. But I still hope that this will not happen: I like being alive, after all  ;)

Look at that pages source code again.  You'll see that it more than just "nope".

I already seen it, don't worry. "NOPE." is the best thing to hear about this.

Sensationalist press nonsense and a quote from a scientist who can't get any press coverage from his own work. Big deal. Humans have a real obsession with eschatology. I'll bet five bucks that when the end of the world comes, it comes in a manner that no human ever predicted or imagined.

verden you could be right, but isn't everything all mapped out for us and we are not to question what we are told?

No, that sort of perspective just means that one does not have to take any chances or be responsible for one's own life choices. Most philosophies, and all religions are nonsense. Stick to what you can prove, demonstrate, or measure objectively. The rest is manipulation of many by a few, for the benefit of the few.

Then could that mean that there might NOT be an end to the world?

verden: if the world will not end for this experiment it will end because the Sun will die (somebody somewhere already told that) or for something else: there are so many things the world can end for... but EVERYTHING comes to an end, nothing can exist forever.
(Or am I misunderstanding, as always?  :P)
