Abstract
IN his letter in NATURE,1 Dr. P. Lecomte du Noüy says : “As the concentration of the soap solution + glycerin which he [L. D. Mahajan 2] uses is not stated, but may be as high as 2.5 per cent—which should give a very small drop—it is indeed quite possible that illumination plays a part in this case”.
