  Don't belittle me.

  There are two views:

1) Every single text I have read about the subject talks about particles
or objects passing through the event horizon, and how once inside they
cannot get back out. Some texts talk about the problems this imposes
from the point of view of quantum mechanics, as it seems to contradict
the rule that no information about a particle is ever lost, but a particle
entering the EH of a black hole seems to be lost information.
  Also the entire notion of Hawkin radiation is that one half of a split
virtual particle *enters* the event horizon while the other doesn't.
  I don't remember ever reading any text dealing with GR which wouldn't
talk about particles entering the EH without any conditions or problems.

2) You say that nothing ever enters the EH.

  So tell me: Which one should I believe more?

  So I repeat myself: I think you are wrong.
