Why things darken with water?
My daughter, age 8, keeps asking me why things are darker when wet and I just can't seem to give her an answer that satisfies - Can anyone help in childlike terms!

As I looked out of the window at work this morning I noticed that one of our window surrounds looked darker than the others. Immediately thinking of this post I had a closer look and sure enough we have a leaking window and the darker ledge was covered in water. Well done AB!
Now if you can just suggest a way to get the rain to stop so we can get the window fixed I'd be doubly grateful!!
