I cant see how such info could ever have been released in the first place if it was incorrect.
Inaccurate information on the internet? Impossible!  Muons were discoverd in the 30's. There is no scientific publication of that time that I could find that even hinted at them being tachyon candidates.
Julz: I think we are both saying the same thing. The definition of Speed is a change in position over time... it doesn't matter what is changing position. In fact, your dragonball example, technically, also has a speed faster than the speed of light. The basic fact that I'm trying to impress (and you may already know) is that information cannot travel from one place to another FTL. The DB example, the flashlight example, all of these are FTL but cannot be used to transfer information FTL. So again, FTL speeds are possible but not to transfer information... hence teleportaion or massive FTL (both of which could carry a message) are impossible under current physical laws.
