"Infinately small" is a term I keep hearing which rubs me a bit wrong. Isn't "infinately small" "not there". It seems more likely it's just DAMN small.
And this "gateway" concept. Is there ANY evidence to suggest this as a possibility as opposed to "it just gets added to the BH's mass"?

Actually, a black hole is just pushing our understanding of physics beyond what we know and can test. Gravity beyond the event's horizon of a black hole is such that something has to move at the speed of light just to be able to remain in orbit. Since we know that no massive object can travel that fast, and that everything below the event's horizon would have to travel faster than light, we also know that nothing will prevent the mass from falling into itself, on a center point. Nothing can resist: even neutrons would be crushed; hence this zero volume that concentrate all the mass; that is why it is called a singularity. Perhaps there is a non-zero volume, but that could be due to the presence of another force that can resist infinite compression that we know nothing about yet. With the present knowledge of physics, all that mass has to go into a non dimensional point. Hard to accept, but that is all our current equations can tell us.

A black hole is not a place.
This is why it's infinitely small.
It only appears to be there.
As you near a black hole, time
slows down. The closer you get,
the slower time goes.
If you want to get there in a hurry,
dying will do it. Everything that
collapses from particle energy
to quantum energy winds up in
a black hole.
The mass is made up of "quarks,"
which now exist under the speed of
dimension. The hole itself is defined
by a shell of particle energy.
Many scientists believe the gateway
is some sort of radiation.
One interesting note: recent scientific
experiments using ionized rays from
gold bars, caused black hole quarks
(lab based) to collide. The genetic
explosions that followed, resulted in a
piece creation to form.
And this is the interesting part. The matter
that formed, was what they started with
originally, to produce the black hole.
Quite an extraordinarily cycle, indeed. And
one more brick in the wall. At least for those
who believe that creation explodes from a black
hole and returns to a black hole.

I agree the term 'infinately small' is kind of out there. I would think that it would be non-existent also. But as for your other question, the leading theory is that it is added to the black holes mass. As for the other theory, it is derived from many unexplained things in the universe. When something enters a black hole its never seen again, or thats what is popularily thought. But for something to completely vanish is unaccpeted by some. And the theory of worm holes plays a part in this I believe, along with the finding of dark matter and the irregular actions of particles in space. In which they act like they are in more then one place at a time, jumping randomly.

The larger of the objects of the edge of gravitational rock.
It is very likely that the 16 recorded births of stars is the near
region of the gathering materials forces made open in the
infinitesimal systems of interactives. This swirl movement
causes very complete packing of the star into planet shape.
The gateway theory is not likely and unsafe to any traffic.

lol i just had a lecture in my physics class on this today.
A black hole is created from a dying star(needs to be twice as big as our sun) after it collapases it is like this.
Universe=Stretched out blanket
The mass of the star=The ball
The ball is than stretched down this creates the black hole.
A BLACK HOLE IS NOT A VACUM THAT SUCKS EVERYTHING INSIDE. Just stuff that are too near it to escape its gravitational pull
They say that inside the bottom of the black hole time stops and beyond it is the worm hole that opens out to another whole universe(theory) :D

Your opinions are correct in my book i mean think about it a satalite took a picture how many miles in measure away from earth to this black hole id say there is some pictures quality flaws. And honestly has man been here or seen it think about how far we have made it with our space shuttles!

a black hole is the result of when a giant star collapses so basically a black hole has an incredible amount of mas therefor ithas an incredible amount of gravity maybe it just keeps colapsing

there is a big possibility that black holes are present in our solar galaxy for the reason that when stars undergo the last stage of their life span they "mysteriously" are pulled by an invisible force

um i think you will inplode if you get to close to one but first your time space continueome will slow down
