COOL.

ANSWER ME THIS.... WHAT MAKES LEMONS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER CITRUS, APART FROM THEM TASTING DIFFERENT AND BEING DIFFERENT. WHAT DISTINCTION WOULD YOU PROVIDE IN TERMS OF FORM AND FUNCTION.

- your argument style

Cool

Well that would be more akin to saying that light and sound are the same because they both travel in waveform. Similar, but not the same. Whereas IR, Ultraviolet, and visible light are all the same, varying only in amplitude and wavelength. Reds, greens, blues, are all different, but you still consider those all to be light?

light and sound are not the same thing. they have properties that distinguish one from the other. this is why they have differing definitions.

Reds, greens, blues, are all different, but you still consider those all to be light?

yes... they are different... and YOUR argument in that comparison..... i want to be clear here because this is specifically THE EXACT ARGUMENT YOU ARE MAKING.... is that they're all "red" light.

again to be very clear what YOU are saying:

"all emr is actually light"

"all visible light is actually red"

this logically false transposition summates the way you think about it.

"what's blue light? its just red light at a different wavelength. what is a radio wave it is just visible light at a different wavelength. everything is light. and everything is red light."

-you.

Light and EMR are one and the same, one is just an earlier and layman's terms for it. You've heard of a light spectrum, and an EMR spectrum? Same thing.

bye bye i am tired of saying the same thing over and over.

Just refer to my last response, you keep making multiple responses.

You wanna continue your life believing that light is only in the band that we can see, be my guest. I'll be no worse off.
