> I'm willing to entertain, for the moment, the idea that some particularly high-energy collisions are capable of reaching back in time and preventing themselves from happening.
Doesn't make sense, to reach back in time to prevent itself from happening, it'd have to happen.
Imagine a stream of water sliding down a string, every once in a while a droplet falls off the string, if the string is our worldline, the droplet is the world where the LHC is fully operational.
//actually that's total bullshit, the higgs boson likes it's privacy that's all.
