As I understand causality,        an event can only influence events in its future light cone.               So, where's the future light cone of the event "the faller        crosses the event horizon here"? This future light cone does        not seem to be in the space outside of the event horizon!               This would have the very real effect that this event cannot        influence anything in the space outside of the event horizont,        which is not an illusion.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
