The argument for relativity and nothing being able to exceed C requires a Universe that matches Newtonian/Einsteinian calculations. Freelancer's Universe does not, ergo it needn't be the case that relativity exists. There are the terms subjective and relative time, in Freelancer every player individual experiences the same subjective time and are able to communicate instantaneously, so relative time is not an issue. We don't hear private messages from last week in the present, because we heard them last week.

Interesting book: Joe Haldeman's Forever Peace in which it is discovered that the galaxy was a "sandbox" in which the limiting factor of the speed of light was an artificial restraining variable. The end of the experiment is averted, but the creator/experimenter changes the speed of light by 5%. This means they have to go and recheck every scientific "Law" because they were all affected.

If someone lives to be 200, at what point might they become senile? 80 still? What about age-related issues like Alzheimers? I would assume Cardamine to be a panacea for all of these problems, but what about the people who haven't had their genetic material rewritten?
