    That’s actually incorrect, the light reflected by the mirror is time delayed based on 2 x the width of glass on the mirror so you are just kissing a slightly older version of you.

    A world renowned scientist like neil should know better

      so you are just kissing a slightly older version of you.

      Younger… The image is delayed, so what’s “displayed”, is a younger version of yourself.

          Oh that’s not a big deal so long as you refuse to look in the direction of the open bathroom door. Everyone knows that!
