But that's as far as I'm gonna go with that line of thought - at least, here (I think the hall monitor is lurking nearby).

Lightning, Sticky Tape, and Black Hole Observations -
I think Thomas' recognition of the philosophical perceptions of the "light" versus "dark" metaphor is very profound, and can be applied across the board to virtually every aspect of the human experience - including the near death experience!

It's all about perception.

Very nice perspective in this post - it catches not only the technical differences, but the soul of the differences. Whose gonna nitpick about a plasma's dark mode when we have all the rest of it? Good work! How about collapsing bubble luminescence during water cavitation? Is that a similar plasma phenomenon, similar in scale to sticky tape but a different mechanism altogether?
