Blackhole made in Particle Accelerator

The New Scientist has and article on the possibility that:

"A FIREBALL created in a particle accelerator bears a striking similarity to a black hole" «±»

BlackHole! This could be an incredible discovery if true and the most fool hardy to try to control. The potential power there is beyond comprehension and I could easily see an experiment getting out of hand and destroying huge section of the planet. The article down plays the dangers, but by it's very nature they don't truly understand what is happening. If anything if they want to continue in researching this, it should be in space so that if any thing goes wrong it isn't here. Having said that, it would postpone further research for a decade or more.
