   Do they plan on cleaning the beer off of that motherboard before powering it up? If not, it may never work again.

   Toward Pure White Light: Next-generation LEDs Show Bright Promise

   Science Daily � Scientists in India are reporting an advance toward discovering a Holy Grail of the illumination industry — a white LED, a light-emitting diode that produces pure white light suitable for interior lighting of homes, offices and other buildings.
   …
   The researchers report the first success in developing a new LED based on a new phosphor from semiconductor nanocrystals of cadmium sulfide mixed with manganese.

   I have no idea what they mean by “pure white” light.
