I'm inclined to agree with Say Uncle that creating a black hole here on Earth seems pretty dangerous. (And they're worried about my SUV?)
If there is anything that is going to kill us all, it's scientists.

If it is a black hole, then it's evaporating very quickly, and confirming Stephen Hawking's calculations that indicate that black holes are leaky, and tiny ones are very leaky and thus evaporate away faster than they can absorb new material.
