I think I'm finally understanding what Darren means.

If time slows down nearing a massive graviational field and an external 
observer sees the voyager freezing as he aproaches the EH, but still for 
him time would be the same as always, except perhaps he would see the 
external observer and the rest of the universe behind going by extremely 
faster as ages go by until eventually getting out of view once passing 
the EH.

The question Darren seems to pose is:  does it get an eternity for the 
voyager to get through the EH?  I believe not, even in the so called 
supermassive blackholes supposedly in the center of galaxies.  Spacetime 
dilatates near the EH, but don't become infinite (except in the 
singularity).  So, if we think otherwise we come to the turtle and 
Achilleus tale.

It's also interesting that a blackhole is as obscure as the future and 
the objects farther away we can get a glimpse of are from a bright 
distant past that gets away from us under heavy acceleration...
