I'm back with something conspiracy theorists are going to love. A public safety message.
In my last post , I said that although the newly developed CERN particle ring had started up, it hadn't caused the end of the world through a black-hole.
I was wrong.
You may not have realised, but linked* to this event was the following news article, Kiwi lollies lose their sparkle
Yes that's right, giant confectionary maker Cadbury-Pascall pulled the iconic New Zealand lollies** from shelves, meaning the sudden disappearance of Sparkles, Tangy Fruits and Snifters. Will Jaffas be the next casualty? who can tell.
And this occured at the same time the particle accelerator started up. Coincidence? I think not!***
Luckily for New Zealand and the rest of the world this phenomenon was short lived; as the accelerator in question developed a world-confectionary saving fault and was shut down.
Add some heated environmental protesting via consumer outrage, and it looks as though Cadbury may restore the missing lollies to shelves - the damage to the earth will be minimal.
But it was a close thing.
In case this should happen again, stock up on your favourite lollies now to be prepared.
There's no telling when such a disaster may occur again, and next time we may not be as lucky.
* May not be statistically valid
** Lolly; aka confectionary, candy, sweets
*** Ok yes, maybe coincidence
