During a "Take your child to work" day:
Son: Father, when I grow up, I want to be a scientist just like you.
Dad: Good son. Now, tell me. What color light does the yellow cable transmit?
Son: Yellow light?
Dad: Wrong. It's red light. Now, tell me what color light does the blue cable transmit?
Son: Blue light?
Dad: Wrong. It's green light. Now, tell me what colour light does the black cable transmit?
Son: A colour that is neither red nor green!
Dad: Wrong again.
Son grows up to be a politician.

@LechuCzechu *facepalm. it would be dodecapus
-
@WakeUpSleepIsDeath You are quite insane and very racist.
-
@BackstageScience i guess the company was running out of plastic, and used what they had
-
I kind of like 'disquidopus'.
-
@WakeUpSleepIsDeath No...youre confusing thrush with cancer. Candida albicans does not cause cancer and you cannot cure it with sodium bicarbonate
-
At 3:00 min: cancer is already cured: it's a candida-fungus infection curable with 'baking soda', search "dr tullio simoncini".

Seriously, nobady made that joke yet?
DOCTOR OCTAGONAPUS BUWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
-
Cheaper than having a custom fiber optic cable made to match the colors.
-
Is there any credibility to Dr Bob Beck's work ??
-
Great to see the equipment setup, I believe we haven't yet begun to realize the full potential of what can be done with Laser light.
Good work.

Isn't it kinda confusing that the yellow cable transmits red light, the blue green light and the black one 3 different colors?
