Yellow, Red and Green
Simple words. Basic visual stuff. Wondering if we swapped eyeballs at the intersection, would the actual colors still be the same in our brains.
Of course this thread hasn't a thing in the world to do with colors or intersections. It's all about how differently we see things in this forum.

I on the other hand would probably be wonderfully surprised if not overwhelmed by the explosive colors I've never seen.
I am color-blind. I wear a gray sweater and I hear, "nice green sweater".

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI have trouble distinguishing some shades of green, as well as purple and pinks. The colors to me look normal to me because it is all I've ever seen. Sometimes I think it's gray with the green... or who knows what color or cares with the purples and pinks.

Other than that, I don't know what I'm missing so color is what color is.
Perhaps things taste better to me since my sight is off perhaps the taste is enhanced. Sort of like a blind person having better hearing.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyGreen looks green to me, red does too... so does yellow. It's just some shades that are off.
How do know (or have learned) to respond properly to traffic lights?
An example, my father ran a shop and there is a big gray shelf. Written on the shelf is "Green Shelf!" in magic marker.
The shelf was actually a true gray, but my father thought it was gray. To avoid more confusion, one of the workers marked the shelf for all other employees.
Me, I thought I had a pair of black sweat pants. I asked my wife where they were, and she told me I don't have any.
When I finally found them, I said "See, YOU GOT THAT"!?~
She said, "Those are dark green".
My understanding is I could never fly for the military, and not even sure I could get a private flying license due to being color blind.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI never understood this supposed problem. Even if someone wouldn't be able to tell the different colours apart, the red light is always at the top and the green one at the bottom, so unless someone would also be location-blind, it should be easy, no?

This is something I never knew about you, but I think I recall you alluding to it before, even if I didn't get what you were talking about at that time.
Originally posted by PhlabibitMy uncle is color blind and has a private pilot's license. I think you're right about flying for the military though.

Last time we talked about this I believe someone said I have a better chance of spotting someone wearing camouflage... not sure that is true.
