The effect of gravity NEAR the event       horizon of a black hole is much stronger than the effect       much farther away. The effect of distant galaxies FAR from       the event horizon is much stronger than the effect of the black       hole.              Look at Newtonian gravity. The effect of gravity at the surface       of the earth is much weaker than the gravity of the sun that       keeps the earth in orbit. Otherwise, we would be pulled off       the earth into the sun.              John Anderson              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
