You are the imbecile:

http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/light_mass.html

What is the meaning of the equation E=mc2?
You can interpret it to mean that energy is the same
thing as mass except for a conversion factor equal
to the square of the speed of light.  Then wherever there
is mass there is energy and wherever there is energy
there is mass. In that case photons have mass,
but we call it relativistic mass.

Photon Mass?

Let's start with Einstein's equation:
	E = mc^2
This implies that anything with energy should
have mass, too.
For a photon, E=hv, where v is the frequency
of light. Therefore, we have
	m = hv/c^2
To clear a bit of confusion, m is the relativity
mass here.

When the difference of gravitational potential
between the top and the bottom of the tower is taken
into consideration, my formula becomes

Shift obtained from a photon mass of h*Nu/c^2 and
potential energy for a signal emitted from the summit
of a tower of 100 m:
Shift = G * Me / c ^ 2 * (1 / Re - 1 / d), where d is the
Earth's radius Re + 100 m
Shift = 1.090782E-14

The corresponding shift, obtained from the GR
formula (week field approximation, and ignoring the
Earth's rotation), would be given by
Shift = SQR(1 - 2 * G * Me / (c ^ 2 * d)) / SQR(1 - 2 * G * Me / (c ^
2 * Re)) - 1
Shift = 1.090783E-14

I bring now this fruitless discussion with
stupid crackpots to an end.
