Fellas, my two cents;
I think what everyone is trying to say is that from the standpoint of the
detector your using (which I am asuming is your eye,  I don't think you
mention the detector in your original post) you really don't have to worry
about the intersecting beams interacting with each other enough to degrade
the image. This I believe is from the macroscopic point of view, where it
has been stated the radiation is, for what it is worth, acting as a wave.
Now, if you change your detector into something a little more sensitive, oh
say sensitive enough as to start treating the radiation as a particle, you
would really start to run into the same problem the proffesional scientist
are having. The fact that because of Heisnberg and Schr”dinger and the
uncertainity principle you really can't predict how the particles are
reacting to each other. Nor can you even definitivly say that this particle
is hear and that one hit it with this much force and it had this much
momentum and so forth and so on. So, don't worry the light will reach your
EYES just fine, or your ccd, or your 35mm film. Paul Lane
