Template:Itemheader This is a box that contains a beam of golden, smiling light. Or maybe it's not a beam, but a collection of motes. What with the dual nature of light, y'know, it's hard to tell whether it's a beam or some motes.

References

  • The mention of the dual nature of light refers to the concept that light has the properties of both a wave and a particle (beam or mote, in this case).
  • The terms "beam" and "mote" are a play on some well-known Bible verses, in which "beam" is used in the sense of a large piece of wood, not a ray of light: "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me cast out the mote out of thine eye; and lo, the beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." (Matthew 7:3-5, American Standard Version)
  • There is a possibilty that it relates to the song by the band Gorillaz, Clint Eastwood. One line of the lyrics read /I got sunshine/in a bag/
