Baseed on what little we do know about the crackks, people who fall into them are erased from every point in space and time, but things like their children or photos are not. Rory's falling into the crack is not the same as what would have happenned if the Doctor had taken the TARDIS to Rory's birth and killed baby-Rory. Rory has never existed, but his enagement ring still exists and Amy's pphotograph of him still exists. Yes, it causes paradoxe which, by definition, don't make sense, but the cracks do seem to follow a certain pattern which have their own internal logic.

Yes. They behave consistently and we can predict with fair confidence what will happen if a given person is swallowed by a crack. There are a few exceptions that have showed up (time travellers remembering when others don't) and even exceptions to the exceptions (even a time traveller will forget if the person was important enough to his/her life) -- but these also follow an understandable pattern. That's enough to let us say the cracks behave like a natural phenomenon. We don't fully understand it, of course, because we don't have enough observational data. The behaviour is unexplained but it's '''not '''nonsensical. --[[Special:Contributions/78.146.182.145|78.146.182.145]]<sup>[[User talk:78.146.182.145#top|talk to me]]</sup> 20:03, February 2, 2012 (UTC) | |||
