"finest-grained scale" for vacuum. A photon that has a frequency greater

own schwarzchild radius. ...Stuart LaForge
Avant, you know I love ya like a brother pal, but I think this is seriously
wrong. To get to that number, you need to work backwards from the photon's
momentum to get an equivalent mass for a photon. It's a fun mind expanding
experience granted. I did that calculation in college so tragically many
years ago (which is why I recognized the number.) For a few heady hours,
thought I had discovered how to unify gravity with QM. But it didn't work
out for me. {8-]
Gravity and QM are so difficult to unify, it is almost like they are
intentionally fighting each other.
