    dark doesn't really exist in a phisical way like light does, its the absence of something. dark is nothing and it disappears at the same speed as light moves, but light moves because of its source, there is no source for dark so it musn't be something that moves

    Dark ain't matter or energy, its just (like steve said) and absence of light ... light on the other hand ..

    lol I was joking Rolling Eyes

    This question comes up all the time ... light is energy but the 'particles' that make up light (photons) never stop moving (they're always going at the speed of light) so they don't have a rest mass ... and you're second question is incomprehensible Shocked

    # 2 is about synchronised swimming, its very hard to make yourself drown and i think with all those professional swimmers instead of all drowing they would save the drowning person.
