    No, Ted....

    Not that you were there, or nothin', but microseconds after the
    big bang, there was light.

    "The Big Bang theory predicts that the early universe was a very
    hot place. One second after the Big Bang, the temperature of the
    universe was roughly 10 billion degrees and was filled with a
    sea of neutrons, protons, electrons, anti-electrons (positrons),
    photons and neutrinos."
