If you had to add the infinite possibilites to the calculations for the finite actualities, nothing could exist, it all reverts to zero.

because volume=height x length x width, and if it had zero height, it would turn the whole equation into zero, so mass=0
since the 2-d object then has 0 mass, couldnt it be accelerated to the speed of light?
RQ wrote:Swirl gyro, if you're talking about a parallel 2D or 3D universe, then the height=0 would be negligible, otherwise, Huh?

We on one hand assume that we can have fred on the wall, and then on the other hand we assume that he must fly away.
One must also understand that zero-mass does not imply a great velocity. This was never in relativity. What relativity says is that *photons* travel fast (regardless of their weight), but it does not imply that *massless objects* must travel fast.
