things aren't turned into "nothing", just compressed into an infinity small area, whilst still maintaining their mass. but all the atoms, and their sub partials, are turned into??????????????????? this is the bit we can't work out, at the moment.
I love the idea that everything "eaten" by the black hole, remains (in digital form) around the event horizon.
there is even a theory that postulates our entire existence is mealy a projection of the information stored on the event horizon of a black hole. (this means, of course, we are all long dead. which is hard to get your head round, to say the least.)
