    Notes: [Auszug] THE physiological theory of the green flash, resuscitated by Sir Oliver Lodge, is not now held by any competent observer who has made a careful study of the phenomenon. The late Mr. Whitmell was, I believe, the first to arrive at the correct and simple explanation, and he was the first to ...
