(...) Much as I'd like to agree on this, I don't think the fact that nobody posted back then disagreeing with my statement really counts as consensus.

(...) There are T-junctions there, but the ones that produce the most visible dots are between the white stripe and the moon. Both of those colors are light, so the dark background showing through is much higher contrast, which makes the dots much (...) (18 years ago, 5-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) I haven't followed all of this, but I suspect this is probably a driver issue. Ldglite is getting pretty old.
