Many of you mentioned the possibility of overload with a black globe
contacting several solid objects, bumping into large planets, and so
on. The ancients solved this problem by finding a way to create a
large, nearly infinite "energy sink." This is mentioned in Adventure
13 from the old Traveller books. I forgot what the title of the book
was, but I do remember how they made the "sink." I'm not giving any
more detail here so I don't spoil the adventure for somebody else, but
if you want to know, mail me at [email removed].
