Spot on! They would be microscopic and would cease to exist almost immediately by evaporating due to Hawking radiation.

I remember all the talk when the LHC was scheduled to go online and it made me think of a movie from the late 80's early 90's. "Frankenstein Unbound" starring Raul Julia and Jonathon Hurt. It is the thinking person's horror story. Jon Hurt gets sucked through a time slip that his experimental weapon caused when it fractured the core of time and space. He gets sucked back in time and meets Victor Frankenstein (Raul Julia).
There is a classic line when the weapon starts to go off and Victor turns to him and asks what is happening and Jon Hurt quietly replies... "Now... meet MY monster".
Awesome movie and it will make you think about modern scientific research in a new way. His weapon broke the world on it's first test...what if?edit on 31-7-2012 by Jeremiah65 because: spelling
