I'm willing to bet that nobody today is trying to find out what is the speed of light. Because you'll discover that your numbers will be different and that means you would have to go against the mafia of the 'scientific community'... ..and the mafia of the 'scientific community' instills FEAR in others. Truth is it's over 300,000,000 but somebody in the the mafia of the 'scientific community' wrote down 299,792,458. What is the name of the person that came up with the number 299,792,458???? There's your Mafia guy.
