Spiders Jump with Deadly Accuracy in Green Light

January 26, 2012 — Researchers have discovered a unique visual attribute that jumping spiders use in attacking and catching prey. The arachnids use what is called image defocus-proven in part by videos that show spiders jumping with deadly accuracy in green light (and fumbling in red).

Green is positive while red is negative. Just like we use everywhere in our lives except Harry Potter.

I consider the green light as morning, and the red light as evening.

@Cujucuyo

back @ coolculo, i don't see how such a short video could describe any new discoveries in a select number of jumping spiders in great detail, and in fact, i doubt you figured it out either, since you just referred me back to the video, in lieu of trying to explain it urself.

but bawlbag (13aw13ag) is right, we arguing over moot points.

so, you win whatever the argument was about, there, now we can sleep w/ this being settled

let me know what phrase you were particularly dense on, i'll try to enlighten you; more than likely i'll point you to a grammar dictionary though.
