Well, same with me - but that's the fun part about it: Nobody *expects* us to
know what we're talking about, so we can let our imagination run wild ;)

But if it all collapses again, then we couldn't have such an event horizon,
right? After all, it would all "boil down" (literally ;)) to a single point
again, where all the stuff will be able to interact once more...
(Then again, currently scientists claim we'll all be ripped to pieces one day by
the ever-faster expanding space within us all... hmmm... "the space within us" -
sounds a bit hippie-ish ;)
