Hi Phil..

I dont know really as I have the same problem as everyone else.
Lets not forget that we comment upon something we do not have the advantage of seeing or observing directly.
We are looking for something we have maths to establish that it could exist and predictions that around these predictions we should witness certain things..gravity disruption and exotic rays generated from the rapid and horrific destruction of matter.

So such observations are believed to evidence a black hole. Its size is estimated from the gravitational influences in the region and the prescence of rays evidencing matter destruction.

Mr Hawking has worked out out it (radiation escape from within the black hole apparently) is possible from a mathmatical approach (such that nothing is offended) but such an approach does go against the concept I feel.

One would think that the only opportunity of escape for any matter or energy would be before it goes past the event horizon. but once in nothing comes out..except via Mr Hawkings math but I think there may be observation in support...but I can not recall anything specific... I read a lot and remember mostly only where I can find it if I need an authority... but that is my feeling.

AND so this property of a black hole must make getting a message out very difficult and presuming that some particle or wave interchange is required to communicate any of the forces I feel this raises a curiosity that maybe will throw light on the very nature of gravity itself.

In my view my question offers good reason why gravity is probably not a force that works via attraction but more in the nature of a pressure of space.

The good thing is until someone brings a black hole into the lab we can speculate upon it and perhaps figure out some new hypothisis.
Good wet weather material...but the Sun is out so that is it for me.

Thanks for your participation.
