A Physics Quiz of a different type

I'm no expert mathematician, but I believe Don said he wanted an answer in "one or two sentences", and nobody has provided anything less than a paragraph related to the subject.

Being a high school student that has not taken physics yet, this question is very interesting, and I would also appreciate a short and concise answer, instead of having to read 4 long paragraphs.

In conclusion, I would very much be interested in a short answer as to WHY it isn't possible to go faster than the speed of light.

Thanks!
