I think you need to read your physics books again beege!
I specifically said "two pieces of equal type and size matter" ( in reference to two electrons ) to make it obvious that I wasn't talking about a meeting of matter and anti-matter. I was talking about the canceling out of electrons with inverse frequencies, as seen in the common double-slit experiment. When the electrons cancel out in this fashion energy is not released.
