Chocolate factories do not produce micro black holes.. or do they!

Warren, if you try to make sense of the G&M paper but get stuck in one part, why not try to ask in Q&A specific questions about specific parts, without frontloading the post such that it would end up in another LHC slugfest? That's what I was thinking of doing, but I'm afraid I've decided I'm too lazy to do so, plus I'm not even sure what I'd be asking. I considered asking because I fear that most people capable of providing insight are avoiding this thread.
