Doesn't that create a paradox or at least an infinite loop? If time stands still at c then v = 0. which means m is not traveling at c so time doesn't stand still meaning that m is traveling at c where time stands still and v = 0, ad infinitum.
Because from the photon's "perspective" it's not traveling-- it's just a singularity connecting two distant atoms (from our perspective). Also, /0 is fun!
