Color Blind is an annoying term that needs to die. It doesn't happen so much anymore as I and those around me get older, but when i would say i'm colored blind they would take it at face value.<p>"You can't see any color at all?!?"<p>Then i'd have to back track and say "No the word should be "Color Different/ difficient". I have 3.5 cones that choose where color lies on my spectrum, where you have 4."<p>One might say, i don't get the various hues and brightness of color in losing that .5, but i would say i see entirely different colors than you. There's no way hues and brightness can lead to the conversations i've had about whether that color is red or green, blue or purple, yellow or green.<p>What's funny is there is almost no way to truely understand the difference in consciouss awareness of the world, even as something as simple as color.
