This simple analysis can help understanding one of the most celebrated paradoxes of last century.Revtex, 6 pages, 2 figures. v2: Some small corrections. v3: Citation of a earlier paper included. v4: Some stylistic changes. v5: Final version to appear in AJPClassical PhysicsGeneral Relativity and Quantum Cosmologytext
