Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Wouldn't brightness be proportional to the square root of the amount of light released? Also they didn't mention the mass of the wax in the two candles.
That's right, light goes out in all directions, not all focused towards your eye. So the 4x as bright candle burns 16x as fast?
I assumed mass is kept constant. Or it would be, "the candle that burns four times as bright is really heavy."
