Stuff about Black Holes

This definitely sounds like the way the world is going to end to me: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/29/science/29collider.html?scp=1&sq=particle+accelerator&st=nyt

We're way too smart for our own good. I've always said that I want to be around when the apocolypse hits, but I didn't realize it would be so soon. I wonder what it will be like to be swallowed by a black hole. I wonder if it will be like Carl Sagan's Contact, where black holes are really gateways to time travel and other galaxies? I hope so.
