Lunsford; Before you go worrying about the reputation you would garner here, you may want to do a little research into why this place is called "vortex-l". The key part is "vortex". It is borne of those that speculate that the true nature of particles are vortices, not the standard model, and was founded by amateurs willing to openly speculate, not seek to garner credibility. That is left to the academicians who are already stuck in dogma.

All of these specious arguments focus on the constancy of the speed of light. What is never understood is that C isn't the speed of anything in particular. It is a parameter that characterizes the geometry of spacetime, which is no longer Euclidean. The structure of this geometry emerges from a very simple (group theoretic) analysis. The parameter C emerges out of the analysis and is either finite, or not. Experience shows that it is finite. The derivation is here, I gave it some years ago and this person has added commentary, most of which is helpful. Only simple algebra is required. That light goes at C is incidental to the existence of a universal constant with the dimensions of speed. It does so because the corresponding field is massless. The most important point to be grasped is that one does not assume C=constant - this comes right out of the symmetry and homogeneity analysis. Euclidean geometry is also characterized by a constant - however it is imaginary, and corresponds to the "circular points at infinity" in projective geometry. http://membrane.com/sidd/wundrelat.txt -drl -- "Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana." - Marx
