Thanks for the good work Jason. Hmm... I do have a critics, which is minor or major: I don't see any difference between the beam and the attenuated beam on my screen. In fact I would avoid color, or I would still use any trick so that even on a bad black and white screen we can clearly see

Great work Jason! Regarding color blindness, there are some palettes to deal with this. I have a color blind colleague, and they seem to work well with him. For example: http://www.mollietaylor.com/2012/10/color-blindness-and-palette-choice.html I also use the color blind friendly palette when

Thanks Jason, nice work! A few comments: - It's not obvious what's going on when the block of wood turns into two. Even expecting the multiple outcomes, one does not intuitively expect a beam of light to move a block of wood. I don't mind the exaggeration but I suggest you make it explicit in
