:No idea. What I was thinking was who reads books like that?<br />
:He refers to the NE555, the most famous IC, used mainly to create timers and oscillators. Its use matches perfectly the comic's theme. In fact, I came to this Discussion section expecting a reference to the NE555. [[User:Ajgelado|Ajgelado]] ([[User talk:Ajgelado|talk]]) 05:33, 1 September 2016 (UTC)<br />

(There again who responds to sites like this?)<br />
And: Shouldn't the mirrors be at a slight angle to one another?<br />

:A slight angle would amplify with each reflection breaking the chain. It would make more sense for them to be parallel but off-center from one another. [[User:Flewk|flewk]] ([[User talk:Flewk|talk]]) 07:38, 5 January 2016 (UTC)</div>Ajgelado
