Very well Prof. Marchal, but my take away from both general and special relativity is this: Traveling the fastest we can go, that's the same physical effect as falling down a deep gravity hole. In both cases relatively speaking time slows down. Q him seems kind of timeless to me, but I haven't really studied it as it should be studied. -----Original Message----- From: Bruno Marchal <[email protected]> To: everything-list <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, Oct 27, 2014 09:52 AM Subject: Re: Why is there something rather than nothing?

A bit like Newton physics, it seems it divides by zero, and Wheeler coined the term "black hole" for this happenings, which were a name for the contradiction. But QM saves the black-hole, apparently, but still refuse a simple marriage with GR. Most physicists, I think, believe that QM is probably less faulty than GR.
