<...building a sustainable, synthetic black hole and storing it on the grounds of Fermilab.
Now there's an environmental impact statement I'd like to see.
"Oh, sorry, the containment field failed and the hole kind of...well...fell down."
"Where is it now??"
"Well, I assume it's oscillating back and forth around the Earth's core in a highly elliptical orbit. I suppose eventually it will settle there and slowly eat the planet."
"Well, you can kiss YOUR Christmas bonus goodbye!"
