Cecil, this sounds like a regular poster David.Perhaps he is pulling
your leg with his nonsence


We know that we can accelerate an electron to 90% of the speed of
light - it happens every femtosecond in one of any 100 billion crt
displays still glowing in the world. Some of us know its mass at this
speed. A question for the Newtonian philosopherz:
"What is the mass of a photon traveling at 90% of the speed of
light?"
