Thats how it was explained to me, if any physicist can correct me please do but we have nothing to fear from this but a chance at greater insight into the universe and our existence.

Yay for LHC!
Does anybody really know this for certain though? Black holes that they think they found in space caused by supernova's are light years across in size, we only need to create a little one in order to cause grief

70 years ago noboby would have thought something so small that you can't see could be split and cause an explosion that would level a large city either.
