An interesting mapping onto the surface of an expanding (pitted) balloon are the
three spacial dimentions.  Time is the dimention at right angles to the surface.
 The pits are locations of mass.  Black holes make relatively deep pits.  
Concievably there might be some black holes that go all the way to the center of
the balloon (though no further).  I would expect to find the origin of a big 
bang somewhere near the center.

Assuming a cycling universe, what would the completed solid of all of spacetime 
look like?  Like a bowling ball with a few huge pits that represent the union of
the last black holes?
