Only Steven Wright knows for sure.

There is no dark, only places the light has not reached yet.

What is the flipside of a coin? ... The speed of dark is limited by how quickly light leaves a location.

Can you give an example of somewhere/when in our universe where there is no electromagnetic radiation and no virtual particle creation? There you could measure the speed of dark. And apparently, Steven Wright has been there ... his humor is often that dark, and hilarious. Do you suppose he wears his hair like a confused Einstein in order to convey some excentricity we might equate with ‘Mathematicians and Physicists’? What did the guy who came up with ‘e’ look like?
