 Dept of Nitpicking:  actually you don't get yellow light, you get light
 that *looks* yellow to an unaided human eye.  A spectrophotometer (or
 just a prism) will reveal that it really still is red plus green.  (I
 have seen people confused over this, so it seemed worth mentioning.)

Well, now, that depends upon how broad the spectra of the aforementioned
red and green sources are, doesn't it?

I'm delighted that so many of our audiophiles are opti-philes (or whatever).
This is certainly a more exciting topic, anyway, than CD longevity, mercury-
filled cables (:-) sorry), Sony Portables and whether or not your car
CD player skips ... sheesh!
