Photon = Light

In Star Trek, they attack each other with particles of light. This will NOT cause any Imperial captain to fill his shorts with trouser chili. So remember this when we hear the other 'direct quote' arguments, like 'lasers and nav deflectors' and Han Solo's '500-ship-starfleet' quip; the Photon Torpedo is a flashbulb bomb.
Photons can carry energy, same as any other particle. Would you call a GW laser a flashlight?

Perhaps you need a sense of humour to be surgically implanted in your ignorant ass.

I appreciate humor like anyone else, well maybe not, but the humor has to be intelligent.....besides I almost suspect that Coyote was serious.
