    Nothing faster, is there mes amis? Yet you can block out light with walls and binds, and in places like caves, you must take it with you (invite it.) Good! Tal, Pensy, Maddie!

    Someone else make one up. I'm rusty or something...

    One man shows another, the portrait of a gentleman and tells him: "I have neither brothers nor sisters, but this man's father is the son of my father."

    Who is the man in the painting?

    Exclamation

    One passes through and forms seven, but if the seven pass back through they form one. Name of object, one, and seven, please.

    No. Three things. The one that breaks into seven and returns to one, the seven the one becomes, and the object that causes this.

    White light, prism, spectrum ?
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    I thought of that too, but the spectrum of white light does not consists of 7 distinct colors.

    It's a good one Pen, you got me stoomped.

    "but the spectrum of white light does not consists of 7 distinct colors"

    True, but nominally or traditionally it does.

    Quite right. As Wiff says, Aimus "True, but nominally or traditionally it does." The white light passes into a prism, breaks into the seven colors of the spectrum which if they pass though a second prism, return to white light again. There may be more colors there, due to blending of colors, but seven: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet are the traditional colors. Good catch, Wiff. Aimus, you must learn to listen to your instinct! (When you come right down to it, only Red, Blue, and Yellow are the primary colors anyway, any others are blends!)

    Darn my scientific mind. When I thought of the prism I jumped right to photons and refractions. That's why I'm just no good at riddles.
