Hi all and David Bowman-
Hmmm, I dunno, David. Suppose that the photon did have a small
mass while still being the lightest particle in nature. What would special
relativity look like then? What kind of argument would lead us to the
Lorentz transformation? We would, of course, discover the constant "c"
by balancing energy-momentum and mass differences for unstable nuclei.
