Subj: Re: !Q! and MASS
The trouble with specifying a mass in this way is that
the mass of anything (say hydrogen) which will fill a sphere
of radius '1' is dependent on the temperature and pressure
at which it is measured.
I agree that the physical quantity MASS is important and
that we should be looking out for its definition.
Would it not come in a form similar to the following
- The mass of a photon of the energy which the message is
transmitted at.
- The mass of a single atom of the simplest element (Hydrogen)
