They literally smash atoms together at an insane speed.
They either have already or they think they have figured out how to make gold.
One of the possible outcomes is creating a black hole.... oh joy.
The morning they turned the darn thing on there was this creepy pink glow in the sky in the middle of the night here!
I know it was just co-incidence but it scared the bejeezus out of me.
EDIT - I see capuchin is reading this so I am prepared for my answer to be very wrong haha

Oh okay thanks Shazzy.
What is a black hole?
ANSWER: A black hole is a theoretical entity predicted by the equations of general relativity. A black hole is formed when a star of sufficient mass undergoes gravitational collapse, with most or all of its mass compressed into a sufficiently small area of space, causing infinite spacetime curvature at that point (a "singularity"). Such a massive spacetime curvature allows nothing, not even light, to escape from the "event horizon," or border.
Black holes have never been directly observed, though predictions of their effects have matched observations. There exist a handful of alternate theories, such as Magnetospheric Eternally Collapsing Objects (MECOs), to explain these observations, most of which avoid the spacetime singularity at the center of the black hole, but the vast majority of physicists believe that the black hole explanation is the most likely physical representation of what is taking place.
What will it do?
ANSWER: so it'll smush up the earth and kill us all?
[If feeling very learny today... I know learny is not a word].
You girls are funny, give me a little time to post a heads-up 'bout the LACROSS mission to the Moon in search for water, that will end in a crash landing on Friday.....Serious.......I'm working on shaz's G&P response now. Should have it posted by mid-night k
Atom smashers have been around for over 80 years and no cablooey yet. They breaker apart the elctrons and protons with a fast stream of sub atomic particles. Every old style tube TV has a verion of an atom smasher, cathod tube.
There is a possibility that miniature black holes will be created, but theoretically they would be so small, and last for for such a short time. They could not affect the earth
