Could we, just for a moment, please stop being afraid of every little thing we don't fully understand? This is science, not science fiction. Let's learn what there is before we hide under our beds from it.

Well we won't be able to learn anything if we are not around anymore.
I really hope they know what they are doing.

It's an experiment the whole point is to learn what we don't know.

You'd be better off making sure you know where your towel is. And don't forget to pack your copy of the Guide.
