Trouble For Remnants

Abstract

An argument is presented for the inconsistency of black hole remnants which store the information which falls into black holes. Unlike previous arguments it is not concerned with a possible divergence in the rate of pair production. It is argued that the existence of remnants in the thermal atmosphere of Rindler space will drive the renormalized Newton constant to zero.
