Ha, no. I just found the finding interesting. I don't think it's a threat, just neat that it is so close compared to the rest. A way to study how they are formed and the deaths of stars. However I'm sure some people are going to say in 2012 the black hole is going to suck us all in.

Unfortunately it's 50 million light years away, in a different galaxy. I was hoping the "exceptional object" would be a nearby black hole (say 100 light years) so we'd have a chance to really get some hard data about the phenomenon. There's not much that can be observed at 50 million light years, and it might actually be a neutron star, so I'm still safe being skeptical of black holes existing.

Yeah, maybe that wasn't the best link for the topic. These Bubbles are pretty scary though. It is still far away, but there can be a black hole in the milky way.
