Well, I came up with it without reading stuff about the idea on the forum by noticing lasers filling a refracting box by reflecting inside it so...
Great minds think alike?

Yes, but I -like- lasers damnit!
Also, re: lag, I don't get nearly as much lag because I've got a $1000+ gaming computer with a Core i7 920 CPU which runs Algodoo nicely. However after spawning 3-4 of the segments the lag got to be VERY noticeable when the segments were on.
