    I thought it was entirely possible, but we need Unicorn tears to begin with?

      The answer that suggested the use of a can of spray paint was the best. :)

        A colleague of mine asked this a few months back and I had to leave the room from laughing too hard. I then came in early the next morning and covered her monitor with aluminum foil.

                And the sad part is I do think fluoridated water is bad for you. But this lady just makes those of us that do look pretty darn bad.

                      No, no, no - you're thinking of pixie dust. Unicorn tears are for if you want to see the people inside your monitor painting all the pretty pictures.

                        I wonder if that would be theoretically possible with a transflective LCD since they have a no-backlight mode that uses reflected ambient light to illuminate the LCD.

                              Not to worry, the question came from Canada and it's 4 years old - I'm sure the RAC project that prompted the question is done by now :rolleyes:

                                      Pollution is serious. The chemical compound Dihydrogen Monoxide is in our plants, food, used in factories, etc. It's everywhere...even in the oceans.

                                          Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription
