@timothykinney In my latest copy of Photonics Spectra, June 2009 Page 22 there is an article discussing the remote detection of life in soil. They look for characteristic chirality of scattered light from the samples. “Inorganic materials are a jumble of left- or right-handedness, and the resulting aggregate circular polarization is almost nonexistent.” “All known life on Earth, for example, uses only left-handed amino acids in proteins and right-handed sugars in nucleic acids.” This work is being done by the Space Telescope Science Institute and National Instititute of Standards and Technology and was presented in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in April.
You can use the viewing glasses you took from the 3D movie “Up”. They’re circularly polarized. ~

  @The_Compassionate_Heretic Personally, I think there’s a larger difference between a chair and a bookshelf and different recipes for martinis. But cheers anyway.

  Reality is a completely fixed and rigid environment. Anybody who believes in change is a fraud and should be punished.
