Could a laser be used to create a pulse of light whose kinetic energy would equal the mass of say, a brick, by way of e=mc2. Also would the damage cause by this "light brick" be comperable to the damage from a true brick flying at the speed of light. I suspect the "light brick" would cause much less damamge. By the by, sorry about all these questions, this must be my 30th since i found your site. You guys are great. Keep up the good work. Phil
