would covering the walls of a room with reflective crystals create any odd optical effects?
ςανένακ οίτνα

Quote

It is not closed-minded to reject claims that make no sense. If you can’t accept the possibility that an idea might be false, then you are the closed minded one. An open minded person will critically examine all claims but will not accept them if there is no reason to believe they are true or if there is reason to believe they are false.

however one must realize that every thing starts in a default belief and requires a burden of proof for the default belief to be abandoned. it would not make sense for believing in positive statements' validity so the only remaining is to not believe a positive statement until proof evidence is presented.

Depends on whether you consider a potentially huge number of reflections and refractions an odd optical effect.
Our voting system is broken! It nearly guarantees that we will have only two political parties that have any chance of winning, and that they will be very similar.

I think you just get salty bleach.

I doubt it would help much, unless you are concerned about its color or possible bacteria.

the salt is crystallizing and making it so the softener is not working very well

Plain water will dissolve the salt crystals. Is that what you want?

I'll look to like, if looking liking move:
But no more deep will I endart mine eye
Than your consent gives strength to make it fly.

there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, and drinking largely sobers us again.

Arrange your computer in a car running at 200 km/h and keep the heater on.

There may be a polarizing effect related, the xenon type bulb uses more power, more luminosity.

... If the bird that we see quacks like a duck and swims like a duck, and so on all the way down the line, then it's a duck.

If it crows like a rooster and can't swim, then it's not a duck. It
doesn't make any difference how many people insist on calling it a duck, —it still isn't a duck. Follow the yellow brick road >>>
