What you really mean is you make a living of mimicking something you were taught to remember. That is not doing science. Provide one piece of science that you have provided yourself?

What have you actually done? Other than cluttering up online forums? Name one practical thing you have done - and I dont mean generic carp fishing videos with a robotic voice. You don't even have a clue what science is as you have not even made the effort to learn the basics - same with maths. All you do is wind people up on forums pigeon.

See the proof's in the pudding, you do not do science. What have I done? I do experiments regularly but using things I can find lying around the house. I have answers what is time, I have not sent it for peerview as a paper because I want something a bit ''bigger'' than just time. Like answering what gravity is. The only person I see getting wind up is yourself by yourself, this is not my doing. Just because you are stereotypical as a person that does not mean other people do not have answers. I could out think most people all day long is my ability. Practical wise not involving science I am very good in doing many different things. I am versatile.
Of course the light that glares off an object is not clear, we are not taking about the visible light of interaction. We are discussing the light that permeates through ''free space''.

Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light. A typical human eye will respond to wavelengths from about 390 to 700 nm. In terms of frequency, this corresponds to a band in the vicinity of 430–770 THz.
The visible spectrum is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye. Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light. A typical human eye will respond to wavelengths from about 390 to 700 nm.[1] In terms of frequency, this corresponds to a band in the vicinity of 430–770 THz.
invisible spectrumThe portion of the spectrum either below the red (infrared) or above the violet (ultraviolet), which is invisible to the eye, the waves being too long or too short to affect the retina. The invisible spectrum includes rays less than 3900 Å in length (ultraviolet, roentgen or x, gamma, and cosmic rays) and those exceeding 7700 Å in length (infrared, high-frequency oscillations used in short- and long-wave diathermy, radio, hertzian, and very long waves). These range in length from 7700 Å to 5,000,000 m.

Quite clearly you do not understand the difference between visible by the eye and visible/detectable by device. We as humans can only observe light between 400nm-700nm, Other species can observe infra red light which is not within our visual range. We can detect wave-lengths of light by device that we can not see with our own eyes, but it is still light .

No. As pointed out further up the thread by me and others light refers to that portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible.

Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light'This is the accepted definition that is used. This how language works - we use accepted definitions otherwise we cannot communicate and you do seem to have all sorts of problems communicating anything. What you do is claim you have a new idea and instead of using accepted definitions that everybody else uses claim that it is 'book learning'. The definitions of light explicitly exclude radio waves, gamma radiation, xrays and your favourite 'sciencey' jargon CMBR.Your denial of this is rather like somebody saying 'apples are fruit, therefore all fruit are apples' being told this is incorrect and then claiming everybody is trolling you and just using book learning. It is completely idiotic.
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum longer than infrared light. ... At 300 GHz, the corresponding wavelength is 1 mm (0.039 in), and at 3 kHz is 100 km (62 mi). Like all other electromagnetic waves, they travel at the speed of light.

Nope. They travel at the speed of light, but are not light. Carry on using your own made definitions if you like. No one else will recognise your definition or seriously engage with you but as long as you are happy in your own isolated, deluded little world, that is fine by me Pigeon.
