Hi all
Interesting. How do we really know for sure? I consider this to be along
the lines of something I've wondered for years. It revolves around the
way we perceive color to start with. What you see as Blue, I might
actually see as Red. But because we both call it Blue, it's Blue, no?
And neither of us gives it a second thought.
Weird and interesting when you consider the possibilities... Rick :)
