No such luck, Dickbo.

Apparently, your wet darkroom experience hasn't including working with
different lighting sources and you aren't familiar with these phenomena.

Having worked with drum scanners, I'm a bit surprised you are unaware of
some of the aspects of light transmission.

By the way, during the Vietnam war, people like myself were referred to
an "trying to destroy this (the US) country", I wore that one as a badge
  as well.  Warning people about product defects is what makes better
products, not worse ones.
