I read about that in another magazine. It's a disturbing question. <eom>

You can bet that SI-ers did not let that one pass unnoticed. See: Subject 29510 Besides, seems 3-Com is going to beat the Brookhaven boys to it, anyway: Message 10642733 By the way, how is the skunk family? Edit: I mean the raccoon family, of course. :-)

Something named Relativistic anything shoulda been built in West Virginia for maximum karmic boost. I have pondered the Instant Black Hole question all evening ... and I am not worried. You never get more out than you put in, and a black hole made locally would have a mass of grams tops - and that is tooooo small to be stable. It would "evaporate" in a burst of hard gamma rays and more exotic tanning principles. The theory is a tad abstruse (taht reads: I don't know it) but even in the vanishing off-chance that we'd stitch one together - it'd unstitch itself just as fast. I am much more worried by the unconfirmed reports that the renegade State Institute of Psychiatry in Minsk has been making breathtaking discoveries with coherent arrays of depressives. They're making "gray holes". They threw Donny, Marie, Regis, Kathie Lee and Carol Burnett at a small one and they freakin vanished, man - and it grew.

Hey Mike, don't sweat the black holes. I mean...like how am I gonna get rid of all these tomatoes without a black hole? How about a black hole garbage disposal? Never clogs up, doesn't care if tree roots grow right through the drain pipe. And if you built it right, you could even have the bottom of the sink slope upwards towards the drain. Well sort of upwards. Depends on how you look at it. Taht would be cool. PS - party at my house next Saturday. Are you in town? We need to do a bit of wine inventory reduction. Just last night, I rescued an '83 Silverado cab from going over the hill. It was close, but we savored it in time. Email me if you'd like directions. -zm
