A few weeks ago my sister's step son got married. I asked her about the dress she chose to wear and she had a funny story. Apparently she found a gray dressed she loved and before buying it she asked the mother of the bride about her dress. The mother of the bride said her dress was mauve. Well, my sister figured mauve and gray would make a lovely combination and proceeded to purchase her dress. On the day of the wedding everyone showed up looking fabulous except there was one glitch. Not only did my sister and the mother of the bride end up in the same dress, it was the same color! What had been described as mauve was really gray.
So let this be a lesson that for all the cones and rods in our eyes that define color sometimes gray is gray and so is another color................
