	CR4 Admin locks the topic, believing it to be a homework question, perhaps? __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856

	Not enough information for a reply. How is the sunlight divided? What path, or paths, does the 'divided' sunlight take? How is the divided sunlight directed into the prism? What is the geometry of the prism? What are its optical properties? __________________ Whiskey, women -- and astrophysics. Because sometimes a problem can't be solved with just whiskey and women.

	Can't you read all those hits for yourslf? Or do you expect all of us to read them and give you a report? __________________ In vino veritas; in cervisia carmen; in aqua E. coli.

	It's dark here now, so there's no sunlight to shine. I'll get back to you tomorrow, after sunrise.
