"I can think at the speed of light. I can perceive events that last for less than an attosecond. I can run faster than time. What do I see when I run across the country, Superman? I see everything. And everyone." -The Flash

Is this scarlet speedster bound by any scientific explanation, or is he just too far across the imaginary axis to make any sense? Well, logical or not, we've got numbers, and there IS a cap on how fast anything can get, so he must have a limit somewhere, right? ...Right?
