colors

I think there was simply a misunderstanding as to what we were talking about. I agree perfectly with the statement that people can perceive colors differently. I was saying that if we could find a non-human objective measure, that what I consider a green plant is absorbing all the particular colors of the spectrum from the light except one particular subset which it reflects and I consider green. But that reflected subset, while we humans may all perceive it differently, is still technically quantifiable. On top of that, that subset of reflected light is technically the same packet of photons, regardless of whose retina it ends up hitting. Now, once the packet of light hits the retina, it will be interpreted however that human does it. But if we could step outside the human box, we could in fact give certain packets of light discreet names, regardless if they match up to what color we consider them to be at the moment.

Arguments don’t end with Yaniv being called names. They end with me being right.
