Hey Nobody:
The speed of dark is thence equivalent to the speed of light. Correct.

Hi Sally:
'Dark', is light that is not encountering and therefore not being reflected and revealed by matter.
Moreover, light is generated by matter.
Matter is the source of all phenomena.

So the defintion of dark would be something that niether emits light or reflects light i.e. absorbs it? In my mind these are normally two distinct properties of matter not the same, even though the matter may be the same.

Dear eyeboy:
Dark is invisible light.

I think the refelected light would be slowed down slightly as it does when it enters a medium.
However the conversion of the light to energy during absorbtion heat due to kinetic energy and then there's the magnetic field exerting force on the material it hits....... equal and opposite reaction stuff

I'm confused is this physics we are talking or metaphysics? Physically light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and visible either by the eye or by electronic measurement..... how can it be invisible.... or do you mean 'invisible by the eye'?????

Yes. 'Electronic measurement' is why there is no speed of darkness.
