Hi Dana,

It was a sucker punch anyway. Cecil doesn't have the experience in
optics to answer it with any particular immediacy or accuracy, nor do
99% of those in this group (lurkers excluded). I've got an extensive
career in the field that includes 5 patents in photonic applications.
I've also designed a number of proprietary photonic devices that
measure blood-gas chemistry, O2 saturation, pH, and the Stroud Moment
(as it relates to mental acuity through visual testing).

Richard,

In the interest of fairness, Cecil said he would be taking a
motorcycle trip over the long weekend.

At 3 MHz I get 144 micro Kelvin by multiplying frequency by Planck's
constant and dividing by Boltzman's. My daughter had a similar
problem in her High School freshman Earth Science class a few weeks ago.

It might not be entirely fair to translate a lack of response to a
lack of ability. There are other factors as well, among them being
lack of even the slightest amount of interest, and difficulty
deciphering what the heck you are talking about from one moment to the
next. ;-)
