Edgar, and group,
Edgar is SO right, in this bit. There is just reflected light and scattered
light. Imaging, and interpretation of images, is one of our inherited gifts.
Of course, blind people do not participate in visual imaging, yet they possess
a "spacial" sense assembled by the other senses. And blind people feel warmth
of sunlight, and can orient toward the Sun.
