Subject: Re: DML: WTF (long)
I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify the finer points of the physics
of light... Our trucks are equipped with a blue tinted (mine at least)
upper portion of windsheild.
now, take into consideration if you will a yellow traffic signal... what is
caused by the combination of said colors? *hint* reflect if you will on
the zip-lock bag commercials. Yellow and Blue make _ _ _ _ _ .. YEP!!!!!
GREEN!!! so by my theory, all traffic signals proceed from green to red,
there is NO yellow light.
when in doubt, mash the long pedal ;)
this concludes tonight's portion of Jon Smith School of Higher Performance
Driving.
