There's no way anyone could possibly guaranty %100 percent safety. Why should CERN be held to such an impossible goal?

Did the computer you bought come with a 100% guaranty that it won't catch fire?
Is the food you bought at your local grocery guaranteed to be 100% free of botulism or salmonella?
Does your seat belt come with a 100% guaranty that you won't sustain injury in an accident?

The world is a dangerous place. It's amazing just how much dangerous and deadly stuff people use all the time and take for granted, but don't give a second thought of the dangers.
