in reply to How many colors does a rainbow have?

If anyone else is like me and still fascinated by the depth of discussion this seemingly simple poll engendered, then find an hour to watch this BBC Horizon video (Do you see what I see?).

Assuming that the Beeb will let you view it from your location, it will also fascinate you, but be prepared to have your both your science and perception challenged.


Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
