When a incandescent light shins on my flat-screen TV while it is off, it generates an interesting reflection. 
Alternating green/red light projects from the reflection of the incandescent light in four directions, in the 
shape of an x. The green/red light appears in a pill-like form, such as a short red light follows a short 
green light, and then there is a short space of no reflection, followed again by the same pattern. What is 
this?
