I was asked this question and couldn't think of a good answer. In a room there's infinite different light waves going in every possible direction. How can we possible see anything at all? If I put a clock in a room, light waves bounce off it different than a wall. Why doesn't that interfere with the light given off by the couch? How can anyone possibly see anything ever?
