The first morning of Carlisle you talked to my dad for some time..he told me..he said its a rare color..light blue..I also remember sitting under the tent with Mark and Alan for a short period of time and them commenting on the color also..I guess I don't know ..I have been told..under a dark dash on my back chasing wires using my E2D LED Surefire light things look really different..its all very new to me since I just got the light about 6 months ago..I still rely on pin numbers and connector views in the ETM..it actually makes me a very strong electrical guy..not chasing colors that may not be what they say it is makes things go alot faster..someday my blue will be the same as yours! I wish....my cousin said to me when I was a kid if I try hard enough I will see the color..she was nuts then and still is now..I can't see much..I can actually see a difference in the wire colors with that light..that's all..

I have problems with the lavender/pink/gray page of the color blind book.  Found during my ROTC flight physical.  So did another cadet.  We got waivers.

No waiver here...like I said..the cold shoulder..I think if I would have pushed it harder things would have been different..I still think I should have talked to a different recruiter..the color for me tends to be the green and red thing..yellow and orange..blue green..yeah just about everything..I found out in 7th grade doing the maps..everything is color coordinated..well after failing that test many times the great teacher I had called a conference and told my parents I was failing class..it took a bunch of tests for them to figure it out..I used to color with crayola crayons that had the writing on them with what color they were..I could use some extra cones in there might help some!

So, Rich, you just see black, white, and various shades of gray? (off topic, I know)

The color spectrum for me is real weird..something that I have actually studied..no not black and white..if you take two similar colors I can't see a difference..two extremes then ok I see a difference..the weird part is that I found relative difference between what I percieve as a certain color and what it actually is..ie..my blue is different than yours..its a neat case study ..the thoery is with all senses..how do you know what cinnamon smells and tastes like..you touch taste see and feel..the question is..is it the same for say..your wife?..she will say its cinnamon too..but is it really the same for you and her..so when people ask me what color is that..I say a color that it may be or not..its what I see and may not be the same for someone else..actually ussually never..yellow is my color..the bright yellow that my car is and the box at work really make me feel good..I know that its yellow..because people don't look at me like I am crazy when I say it!
