This is one of the most idiotic things I have heard. I don't want to get into
why... but it sounds completly insane. Does this mean that we can't look at a
mirror and see light because it might kill us? Does this mean that we
shouldn't use reflectors in conjunction with our light hoods? I have a
vacation home that you might like to buy in the middle of the arctic circle.
