Squares A and B are not the same there. I masked out everything but those squares are they are different. Maybe it's supposed to refer to the letters?

Color is fascinating. I've always wondered if my green was someone else's yellow. Aside from color blindness, I would guess that some translation of the spectrum occurs between people.

Also, I imagine that our reactions to colors are partially hardwired. The reason that blue is considered cool and calming probably has to do with the fact that water and clear skies are bluish.
