One of the things that intrigues me is that, say, in the span of one of those billions of years that, say, a single photon escapes from a black hole; life, in a completely unfathomable form, may exist in or around that sngle photon -- but for "only" a few million years.

I just want to know if the debris orbits clockwise or counter-clockwise around the black hole. Does the northern universe and southern universe make black holes spin in opposite directions?
