One Man's View

One man's hole is another man's sphere of influence

I would like to request that the term Black Hole be replaced with Black Sphere. By calling them Black Holes, individuals consider that there is a place where one goes after entering it - likened to the black hole that Bugs Bunny jumps into when he's trying to escape Elmer Fudd.

The reality is that these are Black Spheres that have no top or bottom. They draw matter into them without bias, from all directions. They can not be entered with a space ship to transfer human passengers to visit their past.

Once a piece of matter or a spaceship is drawn onto the surface of a Black Sphere, it is consumed as matterless particles with minimal energy being released to signify the immediate destruction.

These are not Black Holes, but rather Black Spheres that consume everything around them. They are due the respect that they deserve and should not be contorted into something that represents the escape hatch of Bugs Bunny.
