Lets say we find a way to accelerate matter to the speed of light, and 
lets say a bus is driving at the speed of light, with someone sitting at 
the back of it. Then, while the bus is at the speed of light this person 
gets up and walks forward in the bus. Isn't he going faster then the speed 
of light?
