Claim:
A mirror, comprising: a housing having a circular and open-faced front end and a rear end displaced from the front end in a longitudinal dimension, so that the housing defines a volume in the transverse, vertical, and longitudinal dimensions; a circular plate with at least one specular surface that is mounted within the volume of the housing adjacent to the front end thereof so that (1) the plate is substantially parallel with a transverse-vertical plane of the front end of the housing and (2) the plate is suspended therein said open-face of the housing so that the space between the periphery of said plate and the housing remains open; a power source; and, at least one fan, situated behind said specular surface within the volume of said housing and mechanically connected to the rear-end of said housing, said fan configured to forcibly discharge air from the opening between the housing and the periphery of said plate; a reflector that is mechanically connected to the periphery of the plate and that longitudinally extends therefrom said periphery in a conical manner to a rear end which is mechanically connected to the fan so as to result in said suspension of said plate within the housing.
