Unreliable References[edit]

It's bold to change this, but the references (1 and 2) are absolutely terrible.

The first reads like an advertisement and the second is just a hearsay article about a rumor. To be honest, the entire paragraph regarding being able to see "near-UV" wavelengths is suspect and not sourced with anything reliable.

If somebody can find better references, I hope they make use of them, but right now, that's not really all that reasonable.

Thanks,

That's all I've got to point out.
