Okay, here is my little color-blind speech I have given to people. This came about because in High School because I had somewhat of an interest in becoming a Police Officer. Found out that if you are even the slightest bit of color blind, forget it. I am, so I never became a cop. (I am slightly red-green colorblind) After being an art major for so many years I finally realized something. Here is an example; Take the color navy blue. Now take two people, one normal vision, and another being me. When the two people look at navy blue yes, they see different shades of blue but, they both will always call it "navy blue". The name is always the constant. So, normal visioned people are amazed when I can "recognize" way more colors than the they can. Like I said I've been an art major for years and I can say "oh, that's Hooker Green, or Canary Yellow". It's because I have the name in common, and a history of dealing with color and their names. (paint tubes) But, I will admit there are time when my color blindness cannot be helped and it is hard to tell specific colors. Mostly, at night under street lights. (Testing myself on car colors) So, while it is possible to help color blindness, I won't be able to find a true "workaround", lol. AgentSmith
