here's the two I can think of right now

1) Quantum Singularity, such as the event horizon of a black hole, or a pulsar, or the destruction of vulcan, that sort of thing. The LHC might create one in their experiments.

2) Artificial Intelligence singularity. A truly sentient machine intelligence, possibly capable of replication/evolution.

Responses:

I was thinking the later, although I suspect most people thought the former. -- nm - Mop (228 lbs) Dec 2, 13:02 1
