Here is where the efferent model fails, it has been tested, experiments have been done, and the emperical data is in, light reflects and is independent of the object it has reflected from. Efferent vision fails.

This is where Lessans has failed, I often tell someone that in order to improve or correct something, they must first learn as much about it as possible, and only then are they competent to change or correct. Lessans was totally ignorant about light and vision, as well as several subjects that he felt he could school the world and correct the errors, where in fact there were no errors.
