And these days physicists can conduct experiments on single photons and they clearly show that a blue photon can cause chemical reactions that a red photon cannot, and an ultraviolet photon can damage DNA but a blue photon cannot. And the only difference between a red, blue and ultraviolet photon is that they have a different wave LENGTH. * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
