Yeah, well, if you take a cubic centimeter of "energy" around yourself,
of even myself, for that matter, it better be at rest! Otherwise, the
motion/time thing, which your simplistic equation ignores, will, MOST
CERTAINLY, come into play ...

However, the equation you gave is good ... but just NOT that simple for
REAL world situations ... but then, I stated that, before you gave the
equation ...

You have argued this yourself, most vehemently, with photons ... think
about it ... an argument I actually agreed with, and echo here ...
motion DOES change things, a bit ... and, it is VERY DIFFICULT to keey
energized particles at rest, but then, not impossible ;-)
