Maybe this page could be turned into a history of the ice cream cone. Here is a site to check for some data. [1] But probably the name of the article would be changed. Rednblu 04:33, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)
- Light cones don't have anything to do with ice cream; it's a general relativity thing. Whoever wrote the current version of the article was just making stuff up. —Paul A 04:39, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)
- Exactly. I am reviewing my relativistic mechanics notes to see if I could assemble a rough draft for us to improve. Rednblu 13:36, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)
New version
I've made a few changes to this article. I want to make major changes to it though. I have a version in my sandbox which people can edit.---Mpatel (talk) 14:50, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

Light Cone theory related to all forms of energy?
I think I have an idea of what gravity is at least from the Light Cone theory. It has something to do with light speed and the bending of light I think. Like the earth acts sort of like a prism distorting other light based objects that come near it. To me the actual act of bending light in of itself is a manipulation of gravity. If we can all agree that Light Cone theory is gravity that is.
For centripetal force, by spinning a body you are causing the light particles within the body to hit a wall of speed because nothing can go faster then the speed of light. So then forms a Light Cone where there is a past and a future. Since there is a Light speed wall you are putting that body into the 'past light cone' in it so it moves away in the center of the Light Cone inward I think.
With centripetal force you are doing it manually wheras a giant rock just sits there and does it more automatic which is the only difference I can see so gravity could be related to almost all eneregy.
