thanks for the above feedback...
further questions/thoughts...
Although a photon has relativistic mass (forget that for now), don't time and space (i.e Lorentz sp?) still both shrink to 0 for the photon, or anything else traveling at C? If we extend Einstein's "twin paradox" to a spaceship traveling at C, wouldn't space travel be instantaneous (ignoring time for acceloration)? And, if photons carry and transmit information (which they apparently do very efficiently), wouldn't all of the information encoded in the Big Bang (assuming it wasn't purely random--i.e. Paul Davies--which makes way more sense to me than the parallel universe theory) still continue to exist in a point-like universe (for light), which is 4 dimensional for our brains (which evolved to respond and survive in a world after energy congealed into matter)? And if photons play a central role in DNA, RNA, and intercellular communication, wouldn't the emission of these photons add to the overall information (i.e. "life")in the universe? (reason for the universe?) And life, although seemingly stuck in a 4 dimensional universe, actually, from a more subtle point of view, continually transcends our 4, or even 10 illusory dimensions? Thus, our illusory world of multi-dimensions is just that--an illusion in the overall scheme of things...I think I'm getting lost--I need a drink, now I have to think about time and space again...AL (PS I have no idea what a cacoon is)
