      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.

                          "Scanning a mirror didn't work." No shit? Doesn't that result in some kind of quantum infinite recursion?

                            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:
