    Yeah......I thought it was blue.

    Isn't that why Liberal politicians all wear blue ties......'cause they're the centre of the universe?

    what is Colour?
    I was watching a show recently that dealt with the reconstruction of the Fabled Amber Room stolen by the Nazi's during WW2 and because no colour pictures or photographs exist of the room, they took the existing Monochome (Black and White to you) and by studying the varying hues of the specific pieces to gauge what they thought was the original shade of Amber used.

    I dont know about today but I believe the early photography of the Celestial bodies was always done in Black and White and depending on the variance of the shades between Black and White, colours were introduced to the image.

    At night because even the Full Moon doesnt cast sufficient brilliance, the Eye sees everything in shades of Grey.
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!

    Was that 50 Shades of Grey, Gordon?
