  > ... That 1000 watts per square meter, or 0.1 watts per sq cm, that 
you feel on your skin from the sun, is mostly due to light in the 
longwave infrared portion of the spectrum.

Is "light" the correct term for those wavelengths?  You remind me that, 
when I was a kid and heavily into photography, I had a Metz strobe flash 
that produced enough of a heat pulse to be easily felt several inches 
from the head.
