        [Ashish,Balaya  (IE10)]  The part about light not cancelling itself
makes the most sense. I was assuming that it was the light that was being
cancelled because that was what we'd been taught in high school. I thought
light that was being cancelled by a reflection of itself was wasted, hence
my question.

        Thanks, Mike
