In Reply to: Re: The Basis of Supersymmetry s2.1) Is the Mass of the Photon exactly equal to Zero a true statement about physically reality? posted by kx21 on June 26, 2002 at 23:42:16:

kx21,

Zero mass photon is an integral part of the most accurate theories we have. If you want to be a skeptic, that statement doesn't provide any warrant for assuming the photon exists at all.

It's fine to be a skeptic, but skeptics don't go around proclaiming M principles of this and M laws of that. Physics is the best theory we have; if you reject it what are you going to use instead? Nothing you have ever posted could be used to design a transistor.

Regards,
Dick
