I never said anything about "instantaneous light". I clarified this already.

To make it clear the reason why I asked if you're referring to two different types of light is because in ONE sentence you talk about light that takes 8.5 minutes to travel to the paper and "instantaneous light" that is already at the paper... that sure sounds like two separate and different types of light to me.
