Back to the thread...
Light is the ONLY thing that IS visible to us. As eveything we see IS light (or light reflected,same thing) Just imagine what we'd see if we could see the whole spectrum,cos our visible light is just a tiny minute fraction of what there actually is. The Discovery channel put it like this. Ifyou got 20 or so miles of camera film,the visible light we perceive is just 1 tiny frame in the middle.
