| Yes yes yes lol.... But it doesn't change the fact that photons *have* to have mass provided by energy to be affected by gravity in the first place (Even though at rest the photon is massless). Because gravity needs mass to attract. This is why photons can travel at c and atoms can't and is also how... |

| Then why is light drawn to black holes? Black holes, like every other gravitational body, curve space. Light isn't drawn to black holes, light goes in a straight line, which is curved. No. Light its-self can be bent by gravitational attraction. Fact. http://www.google.com/m/url?client=ms-android-tm... |

| This is supported by a wealth of observations so forgive me when I say its obvious. Supported by a wealth of observations =/= obvious. Basically only things with 0 rest mass can attain c. According to the current theory. If you want to establish that the current theory is correct, you can't do this... |

| This is creating uproar in the media at the moment. I'll reserve my opinion until independent research has been completed. Neutrinos are highly difficult to measure accurately anyway and E=MC2 obviously proves the speed of light is constant. That said it wouldn't be too far fetched that Einstein wa... |

| The only way it will gain popularity is when it is tied in with everyone's Google account by default. If you use Android you will be signed in all the time. People won't move over from Facebook themselves. Humans are creatures of habit and Google know this. |

| The curvature of space is how we can have a universe that's finite, but without a "border". (What exactly would be on the other side of this "border", anyway?!) For a simpler 2d analogy, imagine just the surface of a globe. Let's say you're in London and you try to draw a map of everything around y... |

| How would you expect me to learn, if not from another person? Be it through a forum like this, and article found through google or a book even. When i googled the issue, it was said that one should edit "xorg.conf" to get 1680x1050, but their description of the file didn't match my own. And if that... |

Probably an erroneous push/flash message sent by your service provider.
