This has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. MASS IS INDEPENDANT OF
GRAVITY! Massless things (eg nutrinos) do not travel the speed of light
most of the time, and when they do, it's ONLY IN A VACUUM!

Anyway, I'm routing this to net.bizarre, because it no longer belongs in
net.movies.

F=Ma, Larry.
