...accompanying a detachment of French Foreign Legionnaires to Morocco just after World War I. The Legionnaires are assigned to protect a French archaeological expedition against attacks by uppity Arab tribes who seem to think they have a right to their own national treasures.

But this fact has not deterred imaginative relativity theorists. Refusing to believe that anything can vanish into nothingness, they have argued that when matter drops into a black hole...

We stuck it out until the heat got so bad we couldn't stand it. Then we left with the dog, cat, our daughter and one bag of dirty laundry." By next morning, all that remained of Cook's $100,000 house was a crumbling stone fireplace and a flattened metal garage door...
