This is another one of those “mathematics predicts” papers. But without a valid way to test the math in the real world, the prediction is worthless.

Sort of like me saying this: A horse has four legs. Suppose a hour could have 20 more legs. Then the math predicts the possibility of a 24-leg horse. Of course, I offer no way to test this possibility, but you can't argue with the math: 4 + 20 = 24.

Again, a scientist thinking that since an equation comes out right, it must faithfully describe the real world.

Well, that part about “infinite mass” is a limit. Unless you want to reverse the Big Bang, or whatever.

Speed only has meaning in a relativistic measurement. It must be measured from some other object (car versus road is a different speed than car versus the sun).

Object A travels the speed of light towards object B. At the same time object C travels the speed of light in the opposite direction away from B, how fast is object C moving in relation to object A?

There are two reining factors in the belief that the speed of light is an absolute: 1) the state of physics and what we know/understand about friction, gravity and the way that light travels, and 2) the ability to detect and measure anything faster.

Without knowing specifically what they are seeking to measure, it is difficult for physicists to try to detect (much less develop) an instrument that can measure something travelling at greater than the speed of light.

The speed of light is the current state of technology. As soon as we discover dilithium crystals and develop warp engines, the speed of light will be relegated to travel in the slow lane!

(Ok, I’m having a little fun and made that last paragraph up!)

Is lightspeed really a limit?

No, apparently not.
In this video, Bob compares what he does to "the speed of light":

Sort of related. Amazing video where you see light travel bit by bit across a table: http://www.ted.com/talks/ramesh_raskar_a_camera_that_takes_one_trillion_frames_per_second.html
