Interestingly enough, there was an article in the paper about two years ago in which the light particle/ wave was slowed down to about 30 miles per hour so they could look at it. I think they called it "light molasses". When it left the "container", it was instantly back to the speed of light. The next question logically is, what will it do for a FTL particle/ wave front? That would be an intriguing experiment to observe. Pete
