[I like Debra Norville myself... what was that article in Today's
Chicago Woman entitled about her? "Conversation With a Goddess?" :-)]

Actually, in the early days of television, the image tubes utilised
the S-1 (Ag-O-Cs) near-infrared sensitive photocathode, the same 
photocathode material used in infrared image convertor tubes for
active infrared night vision equipment ("Snooperscope"). Allegedly,
some organic dyestuffs utilised in clothes are transparent to near-IR
radiation, so that sometimes "embarrassing" details underneath clothing
would be revealed... I presume one could experiment with the current
generation of CCD TV cameras with a near-infrared source to ascertain
if this is still feasible with current dyestuffs...
