re: Looking at an Eclipse is 20-100x safer than looking at a normal sun

I mean we've all stared at the sun as a kid. You might be able to handle 3-4 seconds of it normally, look down for a minute, then look 3-4 seconds again. I'll test it out. May not be one of those things because there's 20x less rays that I can look at for 4 x 20 = 80 seconds. Might not be proportional and that you can look indefinitely.

Like decibels. I think you can be under 80 decibels for well over 2x the amount of time as 160 decibels. I'll give field reports.
