Ok. Never mind then. I'll just take my ball and go home. You're the boss. (Or you could just ignore the place names. "What's in a name? that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet;" But then I suppose quoting Shakespeare disqualifies me too. Also, please note that "Grok" is a term grokked from Heinlein, but that doesn't seem to affect your right to contribute. (Boy, this is a tough audience. Is there a posters' rule book that I'm not privy to?) But what is funny about your response is, that to someone who reads it without knowledge of the British science fiction character "Dr. Who?", it looks like gobbledygook. (>>Insert insane cackle here<<) ) :-) !

As the "direction" of the big bang is in to our past, the direction of the singularity of our local black hole is to our future. ( That is, is not so much where, as when. And to account for the Hubble Constant and the negative deceleration paramenter as being due to its tidal force, its minimum mass is ~3.18619 x 10^53 kg).
