Consider when an electron and a positron annihilate, a pair of 511
Kev gammas are produced moving in opposite directions. They carry away
all the mass of the two particles. They just don't carry it in the

Hello, intelligent newcomer. Welcome to these newsgroups.

Please define the words "mass", "electron", "particle", and "gamma",
in your prior paragraph.
Your message reminded me of something I pasted at the top of an
unrelated file, for a reason I forgot. Here it is: " The speed of 11
GeV electrons is within 3 parts in 10^6 of the speed of visible
light."
How can an electron be a particle if it travels at a speed such that
its "mass" would be so immense that if it hit the ground it would
destroy the entire planet Earth?

Dear Inertial: Instead of making blanket claims that I am wrong,
select any one point of my science and prove that such is wrong. The
Law of the Conservation of Energy states: "Energy cannot be created
nor destroyed." In other words: the sum total of the energy-mass is
conserved. Energy predictions, like E = mc^2 / (1 - v^2 / c^2)^1/2,
have the energy becoming infinite at velocity 'c', while the velocity
increases UNIFORMLY. Uniform accelerations have one and only one
continuous force associated therewith (as per Newton's Second Law of
Motion). So, the only energy being input in traveling to velocity 'c'
is a continuous uniform force. The above LCE will limit the total
energy to that which accrues due to the action of a continuous force
for some amount of time. Realizing that E would be increasing
exponentially, doesn't require addition, subtraction, multiplication,
nor division. Those are the MATH that's not needed in my simple
disproofs of all of Einstein's MORONIC notions. — NoEinstein —

Dear Inertial Fool: I said that the energy-mass is conserved; I never
claimed that mass will never change. Burn a lump of coal and part of
the mass converts to energy. But travel at any velocity that you
choose and there will be ZERO conversion of mass to energy (outside of
the propulsion system, of course) and ZERO conversion of velocity to
mass!!!!! — NoEinstein —

Dear PD the Parasite Dunce: You said: "The evidence against nonzero
mass for gamma rays is in the experimental literature." But you
haven't explained how radioactive decay can LOWER the atomic weight...
unless either or all of the gamma, beta, and alpha particles have
mass. Good reasoning will trump you references to errant science
every time! — NoEinstein —
