It might be confused with black holes, but would be a different astronmical phenomenon (as would be appararent to any astronomer looking for X-rays).>> Black holes emit x-rays (and Hawking radiation, and other stuff) because the process of sending large quanitities of matter "down the drain" is not a tidy one. Suns, etc. get ripped apart as they are pulled inside, releasing lots of energy -- in fact, black holes release x-rays (high frequency) rather than other E-M emissions precisely because of the amount of energy involved. I am not an astrophycisist, but it seems to me that this would happen any time you stuff a lot of celestial bodies and accompanying gas and dust through a smaller pipeline. Thus, regardless of what you call it -- blackhole, E-R bridge, whatever, you are going to get x-rays and other traits normally associated with black holes. So the ultimate difference in what you call the "black chasm" may be largely semantic. Carlton
