As we noted, the LHC will not destroy the world and as George Musser wrote to me after we recorded the interview, «I said something to the effect that scientists had stocked [stoked] concerns about black holes by saying the LHC would create particles not seen since the big bang, but those particles have been seen since the big bang, namely in natural processes such as cosmic ray collisions; therefore if black holes posed a threat, the universe would already be a goner.»
Gravitational waves are created by cosmic catastrophes such as a pair of black holes locked in a death spiral before finally merging in a burst of energy.
