Botanist sues to stop CERN hurling Earth into parallel universe

A lawsuit has been filed in Hawaii in hopes to stop the start of operations by the Large Hadron Collider atom-smasher on the French-Swiss border. Walter L Wagner biologist and sometime physicist says that the LHC may rip a hole in the fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the Earth. He wants the US government to act now and delay the LHC's startup while a new safety review is carried out. One of Wagner's concerns is that scientists at the colider, might slip up and create a miniature black hole. This would then suck in surrounding mass, gaining unstoppably in size and power in a runaway process until it had engulfed the entire Earth and packed it down inside its swelling, inescapable event horizon.

I am afraid that this is about as serious as the Register takes this story and they gleefully traipse off into quantum physics fairyland in a most humorous manner. Click on the article title for complete foolishness....
