Not a single colleague including Hawking and his crew contradicts my safety-relevant finding for 5 years. This fact can only have one of two reasons:<br \/> (1) The finding is so embarrassingly stupid that to take it up would suffice to soil the respondent.<br \/> (2) The finding harks back so deeply to the young Einstein that it causes fear to tread upon.<\/p>\n<p>One country \u2013 my own \u2013 singlehandedly left CERN in response (only to surreptitiously return under non-publicized pressure).<\/p>\n<p>Obviously the offered result (\u201cgothic-R theorem\u201d) has historical dimensions. Everyone\u2019s survival is affected by it probability-wise if it is valid. We \u201clive in an interesting time\u201d as the Chinese proverb goes.<\/p>\n<p>800 newspapers reported on the theorem in 2008. Only Aljazeera remained four years later. There is a \u201ccurfew of silence\u201d obeyed by my colleagues. Not a single counterargument is in the literature against my result published in 2008 and its many sequels.<\/p>\n<p>Why is CERN\u2019s official \u201cSafety Report\u201d allowed to go un-updated for 5 years? And why is the friendly admonition by a court given to CERN standing before it to, please, admit a \u201csafety conference\u201d a planet-wide taboo topic even after almost three years? Refusing dialog and discussion is one thing, refusing updating on safety is another. In the one case but a single person is the victim, in the other it is you and you and you.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent prime-time movie \u201cHeroes \u2013 the Fate of the World in their Hands,\u201d aired last Thursday by RTL ( <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2324130\/plotsummary?ref_=tt_stry_pl\">http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2324130\/plotsummary?ref_=tt_stry_pl<\/a> ), struck me by total surprise. Everyone can spot the movie\u2019s weaknesses (rating 1.7), but: Imagine the loving courage that stands behind it!<\/p>\n<p>CERN cannot remain silent any longer.<\/p>\n<p>P.S.: I cordially congratulate Peter Higgs to his Nobel prize which he fully deserves along with his colleague. And I ask him for the great honor of replying to this blog post which congratulates him first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Science is based on dialog.
