So, uh, how do they determine if it's "safe" without running it at full power? This is all done on theory until they actually turn the thing on to "full", right?

Legal challenge
On 21 March 2008 a complaint requesting an injunction against the LHC's startup was filed before the US District Court of Hawaii[35][36] by a group of seven concerned individuals.

Correct me if I'm wrong, confused, or just plain stupid, but where is it written (in stone) that any judge in a US court in Hawaii has anything to say about, or has any control over, anything going on in Switzerland? I'm assuming this Federal judge will toss this out for lack of jurisdiction.
