    I am :( I can't distinguish between some shades of Red and some shades of Green. It is not extremely bad but I could not qualify to become an Air Force pilot and now I here as a programmer, as a CPian.

    I'm not color blind; color blindness does occur in men much more often. We studied it in Genetics while I was in college--pretty interesting. However, without glasses I'm legally blind. I can't see the big E at the top of the eye chart. I'm over 20/200 with astigmatism of about -12 to -14 in my eyes. No flying for me either.:((

                Well I don't have it (that I know of), but I'll say this. I'd rather be color blind than blind. So, don't get too despressed about it, it could've been worse. Jeremy Falcon

                  Yeah, whoever completes 10 acres first wins! I prefer the non-racing, put the cruise control on, sit back half-asleep and listen to tunes type of combining.

                      I am as well. Shades of Red, green and blue. It also depends on the lighting for me. IE natural light I don't have as much of a problem, but flourescent light seems to make it worse.

                      Found on Bash.org [erno] hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

                            How do you know you are color blind? I mean, you don't see green (or red) as others do, but you still see some color, don't you? Regards, Nish
