So, he said this 4 years ago, and last month, mysterious green lights over the Indian Ocean:

I'm sure it's nothing. Nothing at all.

Cripes!

yeah, it seems like all the bad signs to expect if the LHC created black holes, or stranglets, according to http://www.cerntruth.com are hard not to notice.

Yes, it could be coincidence, or it could be the science experiement that ended the world.

The fun of it is, we'll get to find out...

I posted this on 03/16/2011 at TOP just after the big Japan 9.0 earthquake ... it explains the timeline pretty clearly and includes news sources and quotes:

Nov 2009 - After 14 months of being down due to initial failure they get it started up but not for high energy levels yet (1 TeV range).

Feb 2010 - started again for higher energy runs (3.5 - 7 TeV)
[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8524024.stm] (dated Feb 19, 2010)
"We went into a technical shutdown over Christmas and we're now ready to switch it back on again,". She said that the switch-on would be "after Monday" but said a firm date had not yet been set.

and in this article, it states it will be running
"between Monday and Wednesday"
[http://www.redorbit.com/news/science/1825947/large_hadron_collider_ramped_up_for_big_bang_quest/] (dated Feb 22)

Notice that wiki says successful data captured on Feb 28, 2010
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collider#Timeline]

So they switched on after 02/22/10 but before 02/28/10.

02/27/10 - Chile earthquake 8.8
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Chile_earthquake]

March 2011 - started again for high energy stable runs (3.5 - 7 TeV)
It just started back up on Feb 19, 2011 (3 weeks ago...or perhaps it was delayed and started closer to this earthquake).
[http://www.symmetrymagazine.org/breaking/2011/03/02/lhc-publishes-first-higgs-measurements/] (dated March 2)

Notice that wiki says successful data captured on March 13, 2011
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collider#Timeline]

03/11/11 - Japan earthquake 9.0

Future
Cern's LHC will be shutdown later this year for a "short technical stop" and then restarted to run into 2012. (at bottom of last article)

Super Large Hadron Collider

The Super Large Hadron Collider (SLHC) is a proposed upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider to be made after around ten years of operation. The upgrade aims at increasing the luminosity of the machine by a factor of 10, up to 1035 cm−2s−1, providing a better chance to see rare processes and improving statistically marginal measurements.

Increasing LHC luminosity involves reduction of beam size at the collision point and either reduction of bunch length and spacing, or significant increase in bunch length and population. The maximum integrated luminosity increase of the existing options is about a factor of 4 higher than the LHC ultimate performance, unfortunately far below the LHC upgrade project's initial ambition of a factor of 10. However, at the latest LUMI'06 workshop, several suggestions were proposed that would boost the LHC peak luminosity by a factor of 10 beyond nominal towards 1035 cm−2s−1.

And even if they shut down their little science project...it may already be too late. Hiding

CERN: Record luminosity in ATLAS experiment & CMS experiment, each LHC beam now has 1380 bunches of protons - the maximum planned for 2012.

Large Hadron Collider reaches record 1380 proton bunches per beam

In just two weeks of operation in "stable beams" mode, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has aready reached 1380 proton bunches per beam, the maximum value set for this year. The number of bunches was increased in steps from 624 to then 840 bunches last week, and now from 1092 to 1380.

The machine has also exceeded the maximum peak luminosity – a measure of the instantaneous collision rate – achieved in 2011. The LHC has now reached 3.9 × 1033 collisions per square centimetre per second, while the top value for last year was 3.6 × 1033 cm-2 s-1. Stable beams mode enables the experiments to collect data for physics analysis.

So far this year the total amount of data delivered to the experiments – the integrated luminosity – is now about 0.6 inverse femtobarn, a measure of accelerator performance equivalent to about 60 trillion collisions. Last year, it took about 12 weeks of operation to reach that number.

This year, the higher collision energy of 4 TeV per beam (compared to 3.5 TeV per beam in 2011) and the resulting higher number of collisions expected both enhance the machine's discovery potential considerably, opening up new possibilities for searches for new and heavier particles.
