Modern thought is that Newton was wrong, in fact not modern, most of his collegues thought so too. James Maxwell (1861) and Thomas Young (1807 refined the rules from Jakob LeBlon's 1722 research. There are only three, Red, Green and Blue. To measure these you have to have precise viewing conditions, I prefer a D62 although the Americans can work with the old D50 grade. The viewing angle should definately be two degrees, as the ten degree model would be for distance vision for a subjecty like wheel colour. To merasure it you need a photospectrometer (only £4000) which will read in any colour space based on XYZ colour from 1931 CIE systems. Persoanlly I prefer CIEL*a*b* colour to measure as it give a visual perspective on colour space as opposed to XYZ and xyz systems. If you are interested (i'm not) then I can send the mathmatical equations used to measure and transpose colour from one space to another. God I can be boring. Chris     Rate post 70010 !

In the mid 1970s, Barrett and Rhodes performed a comprehensive phylogenetic study that evaluated 146 morphological and biochemical tree, leaf, flower and fruit characteristics. This study, and a second one suggested that only three Citrus types, citron (C. medica), mandarin (C. reticulata) and pummelo (C. grandis; now C. maxima) constituted valid species. How, then, did the other Citrus types arise and maintain their integrity? How closely related are the various Citrus types? The development of various biochemical and molecular markers has provided some answers. In particular, DNA markers, with their phenotypic neutrality, abundance and imperviousness to environmental conditions, have been most useful so a lemon is a lime, a lime a lemon. An orange when its green is an epidelious chlorophenetic stage of ripe or sacrophiligious post chlorophenetic epideliumised ethyl rich....orange!     Rate post 69978 !

"lime green" (some limes are yellow, or are they lemons?) whilst on the subject, is an orange an orange if it's green?     Rate post 69876 !

Or perhaps yellow mixed with blue. Nope, definately green. In fact completely green as I scraped the graphics off. Conspiracy have some. They also have the Abecs. How about La Costas with Green stripes (74a)? I'll see if the guy I gave the fibres to wants to trade. Whats price do you put on your sons love? About a tenner? Let me know when he wants a green Turner.     Rate post 69863 !

I have to fly out of Park City Utah, back to London then out to LA for the Catalina Classic. Double jetlag! But it will be worth it. I'll be back in London fron the 23rd April and am looking forward to some slalom sessions with you all. Cheers! Anybody checked out the docklands for skate spots? Theres a lot of new concrete there!     Rate post 69515 !

Lee you can get there via the dartford tunnel and through Lewisham etc. The Blackwall tunnel should be as normal. I'll bring a broom, a few more might be better. Lets say 1.0pm.

Let me know what's happening as three of us are going to be in the park from 1.30 onwards. See you there. This seems to be a North/ South confusion based around the word 'Palace'.     Rate post 69391 !

On 4/12/2002 Martin wrote in from (65.103.nnn.nnn) I get back from Utah next week, but only for 3 days before I go to France for 3 weeks of running Snowboard Instructor courses. When I get back mid-May, I have to meet up with you guys and do the Palace/Hyde Park thing, Paul Price will be back too! Any news as to whether Aviemore will have slalom? Just a heads-up, all you bikers who love to snowboard, the mountain stage of the Tour De France comes finishes IN THE MAIN STREET of Les Deux Alpes this summer. This is the location of the snowboard camps that I run.Fancy snowboarding in the mornings, longboarding/slalom/roadbiking/MTB in 70 degree temps in the afternoon? For pics from last year cut and paste: http://communities.msn.co.uk/MartinDraytonspics Then look at www.csbmountainholidays.com and ask for a brochure....Ask Michael Stride how cool a place it is...
