Anyway, for anyone interested, try googling on 'green flash'. Here's a page to get you started:

According to this site, I saw a 'green ray' yesterday and an inferior-mirage flash tonight.
A photographer friend of mine was able to capture one in progress a couple of decades ago. It made the news that night!
