    An object is defined as black when it absorbs light of all frequencies. An object is defined as white when it reflects light of all frequencies. Given that the respective properties are defined as being very different things, it is demonstrably incorrect to say that they're the same thing.

    Now, you could claim victory by asserting that you have different definitions for "black" and "white" that are actually the same, or that what you mean is "Mr. Black is a white guy, and Mr. White is a black guy," but that's sort of cheating.

    The fact is Black was named black, and recorded as such. Unless you have proof from an earlier age of the official naming of black and/or white then the previous remains as fact.

    Wait, we need to more rigidly define "valid" before this conversation can continue.

    White is when you mix all pigments together, though.

    I thought that was brown. Of course I'm recalling this from my days of fingerpainting, but when you mix all the paints don't they make brown? Of course paints != pigments.

    Thats only cheap paints, so says my art teacher.

    And white is when all colours are in a perfect balance. Black is an utter lack of colour.

    Technicaly neither of them are colours. But contrasts/shades.

    I haven't really been that serious with the looking just yet thanks to family type schtuff. I'm going to flood the streets with me resume next week. Hopefully working at a medium firm in an architecture related capacity, but I may just settle on CAD monkey so I can quit my shitty summer job at Target.

    Good luck bro. If architecture is any thing like engineering, then you shouldn't have to much trouble finding work. Engineers are in high demand at present.
