What do you mean by this?

a) Dark matter emits light, but it all just happens to be blocked from 
our view by other matter?

b) Dark matter emits light, but we've just failed to look in the right 
direction?

c) Dark matter emits a kind of light beyond our understanding that we 
can't detect?

d) Something else.

(a) and (b) are highly improbable.

(c) is pseudo-scientific meaningless drivel.

(d) what else?
