if, to interact with a higgs field or boson or whatever does the heavy/light 
particle need to move in order to interact? or do the higgs particle have some 
kind of there own motion/trajectory? if the higgs boson does exist what is its 
relationship to the mass/energy equivelence? E=mc^2? and if mass increases with 
speed and heat what is the higgs particles role? as a fermion/lepton particle 
moves faster it encounters more higgs particles?
