Actually, color is *not* determined by wavelength.
There seems to be some indication that our perception of color is partly learned from those around us.
If color is not determined by wavelength, then how is it determined? I can't buy into the 'learned from others' routine. To me, that says that a person does not see color unless they are told to see color. It just doesn't make sense. I don't believe that color is just some mass hallucination. I think that the perception of color is stated in regard to the perception of the meaning of color. (Like red = hot, blue = cold...) Green with envy, Mark.
