Re: Weekend Roll Call 7-21-23

Blue light has a longer wavelength and is able to penetrate (Easy, clones, I'm not reading your emails) Blue light has a shorter wavelength. Your theory about penetration may be correct, but not by that premise. https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse2.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%...

I'm please to see you got the joke, Mikey. Some people struggle, apparently. My understanding of water appearing blue is because red light gets filtered almost immediately when white light enters water.

I enjoyed that write up immensely, Mikey. I have always wanted a pool but also lived in a temperate climate (Zone 4b) where a pool is unusable 9 months a year and nothing more than a ridiculous display of opulence.
