MORE MIRROR FACTS • A man named Alcide Chaisson got mad at pilots at California’s Crystalaire Airport interfering with his radio. In an effort at revenge, he took a four foot mirror outside and tried to blind pilots by reflecting the sun into their eyes. He was arrested. • A middle school in Oregon was faced with a unique problem. The girls were beginning to use lipstick and would apply it in the bathroom. After they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirrors leaving dozens of little lip prints. Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the custodian. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every day. To demonstrate how difficult it was to clean the mirrors, she asked the custodian to clean one of the mirrors. He proceeded to take out a long-handled brush, dip it into the nearest toilet, and scrub the mirror. The lip prints disappeared. • Managers like to use mirrors in lobbies because people complain less about waiting for slow elevators if they’re busy primping while waiting. • In 1994, Russian astronauts orbiting in the Mir spacecraft tried to YOUR reflect OWN sunlight into northern WANT TO RUN BUSI NESS? areas of their country in an attempt to lengthen Publish a Paper in Your Area the short Ifgrowing season.
