Nothing isn't white. White is caused by the reflection of light. Since light is not nothing, neither can white be. The complete absence of light is black. For istance, if you turn off a computer monitor it goes black, not white. The white you see on modern monitors needs a constant voltage to maintain it. Those of us who used computers in the early days are familiar with the early monitors on which words were always green or yellow on a black background. In fact, when the white background was introduced I found it a lot too glaring. Nowadays we take it for granted. I'm typing on a white background now. But really, the only reason computer programs use white as a background for words is that we're used to seeing printed books and papers, and no-one writes on black paper. In fact it would be very difficult to write on black paper, but that would have nothing to do with the topic.

You're right on three counts:-Paul Graupp wrote:I don't know if this is correct or just another NOTHING...but if red were the lowest frequency in the color spectrum and orange a bit higher, their radius in the visual sighting of a rainbow would be the longest and the next to the longest and so on and so forth through the remaining colors.
[1] You don't know if it's correct.
[2] It actually is correct.
[3] It's just another "nothing".
Well done, three out of three, and completely irrelevant to the discussion of "nothing", yet containing the word "nothing".
It's a tautological fact that any subject that has nothing to do with "nothing", automatically has relevance to "nothing" in that it has nothing to do with the subject.

It's also the thread you go to when you do have other things to do but you're too lazy to do them.

I wasn't the originator of this thread. Thst was Sir Bob the Knight. Like you, I just participate. If there's anyone to blame for the 125 pages it's everyone who has ever participated in it. If Bobby Lee doesn't mind the space it takes up on his hard disk, it does at least provide several hours of reading entertainment for anyone wishing to go through the whole thing.Scott Duckworth wrote:Alan, you're to blame... now we are at 125 pages of NOTHING!
Scott, maybe you should make an audio recording, reading it all out, and then send it to Librivox.
