Re: [ST] New file uploaded



There are 2 methods for making colors:

* additive
* subtractive

Steve is a fan of subtractive, Tom a fan of additive. Both are right _AND_
wrong because both don't say in which system they are describing...

In an additive system black is the summary of all colors, in an subtractive
system white is the summary of all colors.

So I think it's time for you guys to take your 2 friends with you and go to
the mainstreet for shooting out the things...

BTW: the two friends are Mr. Smith & Mr. Wesson :-)
