Recently, I've been really fascinated with my rear view mirror in my minivan (Geri). What I couldn't figure out is how I can see cars behind me at night when my mirror is flipped up. I've never claimed to be a smart man, but I really wanted to try and figure this out for myself (before Google-ing it). However, I'm still not a smart man, so I looked it up. Further proving my point of not being a smart man, I only slightly understood the explanation of how it works. So, I'm resolving to just think of the mirror as 100% magical.

I think its because you're no longer seeing the bright reflection of the "mirror", but just the glass on top of the mirror, thus dimming the "brightness".
