Despite the one suit-filer's training in physics, he seems to have a misunderstanding of the way things work. He makes 2 arguements about black holes: 1) Black holes could be formed and may not evaporate, and 2) the microscopic black hole could destroy the earth.

1) The same subset of physics calculations that says black holes could be created in the LHC also predicts that they would "evaporate" almost instantly due to Hawking radiation. You can't accept that black holes could be created and then say they won't evaporate; you can't have one without the other.
2) A black hole will not suddenly have a crazy force of gravity just because it is created. If you take a hunk of metal (let's say a 15 pound shotput) and suddenly collapse it into a black hole, it will only have the same gravitational attraction as the original 15 pound shotput. Do we go flying toward a shotput? No? Then we won't go flying toward a black hole made of a shotput. It WILL be inifinitely dense, so it would fall through the earth and probably come out the other side, but it won't destroy it. The black holes they are talking about creating are infinitesimally small, the size of a few atoms -- not even 15 pound shotput sized. Their potential for destruction is even less.
