But in all fairness, you have a good point.
Not having the educational background to take a serious and in depth look at the performance of the LHC is, indeed, a severe handicap to determining it's nature. I would know- considering that I am severely limited.
When I first heard the claims about the LHC being a threat- I did look into it with some concern. Even as limited as I am, it didn't take much more than a few hours worth of reading (Spread out over about a week) to put me at ease.
I have a strong tendency to refer to books rather than the internet. So I would be hardpressed to look up some good links for reading. But I can suggest that you start out by taking a very critical look at human behavior, what it means to have a non zero chance- and the amount of fear mongering humans like to do in order to make themselves look like intellectual giant heroes.

Mine has not decayed. It continues to live in my belly hogging up everything I eat.

Maybe you guys have a point after-all...
