Billboard is kind of like the Wild West now. Ordinary folk better be careful walking down the street because you never know who is going to come barreling through the saloon doors with six-shooters a-blazing. Must be driving radio crazy; they are used to being the only powerful cattle rancher in the territory and now they are looking over their shoulder and asking where that g-damn sheep came from. RANGE WARS!! |

The term polychromatic means having several colours.
It is used to describe light that exhibits more than one color, which also means that it contains radiation of more than one wavelength. The study of polychromatics is particularly useful in the production of diffraction gratings.
In case you did not know what polychromatic meant. I wasn't sure. I thought it might have something to do with shiny.

For those who don't know what a diffraction grating is, it is something that splits light into the different colors, sort of like a prism producing a rainbow effect. |

I had my family over for Easter and took them out for dinner (cheating). Of course my Trespassing CD came on as soon as I started the car, but I turned it down so we could talk. My granddaughter, 5, bellowed to turn it back up because Cuckoo was playing and sang along at the top of her lungs. After the song ended she proceeded to tell me about her friends at pre-school talking about who wanted to marry Adam and who wanted to marry Justin Bieber. She informed me that there were more takers for Adam  ! She also told me that she has been telling her mom that she is "just dying" to see Adam in concert and WHEN are we going to be able to see him. That's my baby! Clearly your granddaughter and her friends have great taste. Just curious: Does she sing all the lyrics of "Cuckoo"? Including the f-word? Or does she do a "Pretty Little Liars" version of it? |

Is dancygeorgia making fun of me or is she trying to be funny? Hmmmmm. Hard to tell sometime. Some of us are smarter than others. On this one I'm being serious! I'm guessing that Pittsburgh will be a GA type of event like Miami. I want to prepare so that I can stay in line long enough so that I can be near the front and get good audio/video recordings. Will be even harder now that I'm having some back issues. On some of the previous ones I was being funny, but I would never make fun of you! And I am always happy to meet people who can talk science & technology!!! |
