"Viking Style" Brouge lacing?

[Father Bill]

I just encountered this interesting article which may clarify or at least amplify the linguistic base for our differences in perceiving colours. In this article, the colour under consideration is 'blue'.

One of the most interesting philosophical challenges I've long noted and discussed, is that we might easily look at the same colour, and even call it by the same name, but there is no way to know whether what I see and what you see are the same since neither of us can enter the other's brain or eyes to see what it is that each of us perceives.

And now, we play the theme from "The Twilight Zone" as we continue this thought and discussion.

The first thing I ask my psych students to do is "describe the flavor chocolate to another student *without* mentioning a chocolate-flavored food."

Describing interior mental states is notoriously difficult without some sort of shared experience, is the point.
