It seems I only started hearing it frequently when I took literature classes with a bunch of snobs who insisted on using it because they saw it in their Word-of-the-Day App or something. Nothing the had to say with it wasn't completely obvious and/or inane, so it seemed like they were just structuring a sentence in which they could use "juxtapose" or "juxtaposition" to sound intelligent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-45776643570745514592011-10-15T16:58:25.462-07:002011-10-15T16:58:25.462-07:00okokrshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15828938843801425383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-19324345925457820032011-10-15T15:22:11.850-07:002011-10-15T15:22:11.850-07:00Suck me offSuck me offRobhttp://imacunt.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-9130420194662789072011-10-15T14:47:03.668-07:002011-10-15T14:47:03.668-07:00@Alex: part of the geek college experience is revu...@Alex: part of the geek college experience is revulsion.

The second prism bends all the light upwards, but same as the first prism bends purple light more (unless made of some exotic material that doesn't behave optically like glass). This means that the purple light would end up travelling up lots, and the red light would end up travelling up much less. The second prism would actually diverge the light more, but angle the centre of the beam upwards.<br /><br />What is needed is the second prism to be base down so it sends the light downwards and puts it back to collimated white light.<br />Or you need to have two lenses, one to focus the light the other placed after the focus when the light is swapped over (red and purple) to make it slightly converging again. Then you can put the prism that way up and have it re-collimate the white light.Aspie from xkcd forumshttp://forums.xkcd.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=75278#p2782582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-24546538848685247342011-10-14T11:00:51.106-07:002011-10-14T11:00:51.106-07:00This is fantastic, you guys:
