The poor little atoms that make up your body might all enter the black hole, but their organization that constituted a person would be history. i.e. You'd be ripped apart by the gravitational energy of the black hole and then you'd be squashed down into the singularity.

Which takes us back to my little black book full of potential investigators ... [evil grin -e]

>The poor little atoms that make up your body might all enter the black hole,

Years ago someone wrote a sci-fi story about a guy who investigated the disappearance of a starship that had tried to orbit a black hole. All he found was a wrench that had been twisted all out of shape by the intense gravitational forces. The story concluded that it was a star mangled spanner.
