Titolo: The Eyes have it.

 
This doesn't seem very plausible to me, as I'm sure the the Induction
Barrier doesn't prevent every atom of matter from falling the Gallifrey's
gravitational pull.  Primarliy it seems to be adefensive shield, keeping
unwanted visitors away.  Invariably some space dust and what-not must
land on Gallifrey adding to it's mass.  So, if we assume that, even if
the balance between the Eye of Harmony and Gallifrey's masses has a range
of stability, eventully Gallifrey will collect enough mass to upset the
balance, then we need an explanation as to why this hasn't occurred. 
Here's my theory :
Since we know that the Timelords are capable of dropping entire planets
into time-lops, effectively neutralizing them from the ongoing stream of
time, why not have had a powerful Timelord (probably someone that worked
with Rassilon, as I doubt he managed to Create the Eye of Harmony by
himself!) place the Eye of Harmony in such a loop immediatly after its
creation, balancing it against the mass of Gallifrey at that instant in
time?  Thereby the Timelords would not have to keep a watch on the Eye
constantly to ensure it is in balance with Gallifrey's mass.  They
obviously don't do this, as most of even the High Council doesn't seem to
know where the Eye is even located!  This also poses a possible solution
to the "Why don't they just cut power to the renegades' TARDISes"
question, for, if the Eye of Harmony is in a time-loop, and the energey
being siphoned off/used to power the fleet of TARDISes is always the same
energy, being re-siphoned over and over again from within the time-loop,
then it may be impossible to prevent that energy from being transferred
to any given "remote link Eye" in a TARDIS once it is created.  And this
theory doesn't prevent the energy from being siphoned from the TARDIS
once it get there, allowing us to still swallow the storyline from that
Daleks episode with the "living city" (title escapes me at this moment).
Anyway, just my $0.02 worth.  And here I was, thinking of un-subbing from
this list because of lack of intelligent discussion!  Thanks for reviving
my interests here everybody contributing to this discussion!

Why isn't the word "phonetic" spelled the way it sounds?
why is 'layman' really a jargon term?

 with the human soul, the link with the Eye just is.
I'm not sure if I'm confusing my series now (sacrilege) but wasn't there a
theory/practice that mentioned that an object could conceivably exist at
any place simultaneously? It might have been a hyperspace one. Anyway, I'm
not going to follow that track here.
One possibility could be that the essence of the Black Hole is such that
it has a presence in more than the five dimensions known in Doctor Who. In
much the same way as we know there are likely to be more than the three
dimensions we live in (where the fourth, etc. are constants), for Time
Lords the sixth and upward are constant. Now, if we accept that time is
the fourth constant for us, and that we all live within it, then it would
be reasonable to say that the same would be for the sixth.
What if the essence that makes up the power derived from the Eye of
Harmony exists in this sixth dimension? That could conceivably make it
a source that is accessible across the entirety of the known dimensions
and so accessible to any vehicle with appropriate temporal engineering.
The Time Lords don't necessarily need to understand this technology, only
how to use it - a little like my computer, I know how to use it, I could
probably make one following instructions but that doesn't mean that I
understand how all the components actually work together.

As an aside, you could interpolate the god theory into this too; if
something in this dimension can be everywhere at all times, then an
entity living within it would be too.

entity living within it would be too.
this sums up my argument for the simultaneous existance and non-existance of
God :o)
