Oh well there goes another theory up in smoke .....

I wish to retract my earlier statements on Black being the fastest colour, :blushing:

I place before you evidence that RED IS indeed the fastest colour.:doh:

Red, the fastest colour[or should that be infra red?]

Why, it asked, do "reds, oranges and yellows...seem to grab our attention while blues, indigos and violets are more reserved"?

The answer will come as a surprise to many: "This is due to the speed at which each colour travels towards the eye - reds, being produced by short-wave light, travel very quickly while blues are long waves which proceed more slowly."

Presumably, speculates Angela Cotton who spotted this, infrared has an even shorter wavelength and travels even faster to make us hot, while ultraviolet is longer and slower, giving it more time to interact and cause skin and eye damage.

Well I see your game didn't work BB. :pAll those rubbish blank posts just got canned. I don't think the active member thing gets done automatically, either Steve or Ciaran have to do this manually when they get time. Acting the maggot won't make it happen any sooner. :goofygrin:

Er, was that me or BB that you were calling a fool Redwing? Couldn't have been both, as you used the singular! Actually it can't have been BB 'cuz he isn't a fool, just barkin' mad, so it must have been me. Oh well, that is one of the nicest things anyone has ever called me, thanks.:crying:
