"Is faster than light travel possible?" I'm not sure but I think I damn near did it on my drive back from Edmonton to Calgary the other day.

Maybe it's just me, but when I'm driving to work and I see the blue shift on the front of the car and the red shift in my rear view mirror I figure it's time to slow down.

I once beat a red light ticket by claiming I thought it was green based on the blueshift. The resulting speeding ticket, though, nearly bankrupted me.

i am not to hep on blackholes, but do blackholes pull things in faster than light moves? i guess if it did, they woulda already discovered that though
