Meanwhile, both particle physics and cosmology are ripe for one of those "shocker" moments, when you realize this ain't the way I thought Kansas was supposed to be like moments.
Have you read this thread?

You know.. THIS thread? Where THIS topic is? Not all the OTHER threads you seem to be slathering your Doomsday prophecies (aka Garbage) on?

Warren Platts- Repeatedly it has been Covered: Hawking Radiation is just a BONUS.
So if there is no Hawking Radiation evaporating MBh's- IF they get created at all- It makes no difference.
If Hawking radiation DOES exist- that's a bonus.

Golly- have you pursued the Tevatron this harshly?
