College open house lasers

[ZRaffleticket]

This morning I paid a college a visit (as it's that time of my life to do so), and the first thing I notice going through the front door is a green laser shining on the ceiling. Was kinda neat considering I'm in the hobby and all, until I found out that the physics department of the college was letting random people play with pointers similar to the pens we all love from our favorite auction website.

The 405nm they had was BRIGHTER than the 532nm they had, and the 650nm was brighter than the 405nm... so what does that tell you about the power? What does that tell you about the people who had these pointed at them? You'd think the professors would use their heads and not let these idiots hand them out :tsk:

Sometimes all the degrees in the world can't make up for a lack of common sense...
