  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) Actually I'm quite sure they are not but I still think bley looks better and as far as I know it doesn't fit in the range of error for my eyes. (...) I'd like to see some sort of citation or evidence for this. (URL) Isodomos> has a very (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) Well, when I was doing theatre lighting work, I was one of the few people who could color-match Rosco gels by eye. Maybe I just have an unusually well-developed eye for colors. Regardless, take a blue brick to an art store and compare it to (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) I think you misunderstood my request. I wanted evidence, not a description of your ability to match gels in theater work. From your response it seems to me that you have a bare minimum knowledge of colour theory which you're twisting to suit (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) It has been a few years since I was actively working in theatrical lighting, I don't have ready access to my lighting design texts, I don't have the color temperature chart memorized, and I don't have access to any type of spectroscope. I (...) (17 years ago, 10-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) Environmentally preferable? Why, because the lower power requirement? Then go with LEDs - at least you won't be polluting the environment with mercury when replacing your CFLs. FYI, incans are purported to quadruple in efficiency within 5-10 (...) (17 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) This has been in the news recently. Although CF bulbs do contain up to 5 milligrams of mercury (and should be recycled) the *overall* pollution produced by the bulb manufacture and the power to light it over its lifetime is greater for (...) (17 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color)

  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) So basically your entire argument isn't based on any sort of colour theory but your own opinion. Why then, did you try to bring up a theory you could neither provide evidence for or even discuss? (...) I don't need to prove anything. My (...) (17 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) Who can argue with evidence this compelling? (...) Ah, the ol' Burden of Proof Switcheroo. Ballsy. (...) That, or the insanely flourescent lights in his house. (...) Hmmm... Interesting, (...) That's a long way up, but I'm sure Toy'r'Us know (...) (17 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) "My reasons are as follows: ...More attractive hues which better match other LEGO colours" Looks like a statement of (supposed) fact to me. So, you presented it as fact. You demanded evidence when I informed you that you were wrong. You don't (...) (17 years ago, 12-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) This is the most pathetic cop-out for not giving an argument I've ever seen. If that looks like a statement of fact to you then, to paraphase you, are you sure your brain is working correctly? It has been clear that you had no real argument (...) (17 years ago, 12-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) Attraction is virtually by definition opinion based. What one person finds attractive, you can pretty much be guaranteed you can find someone who doesn't. How you could take a statement about it as anything else is beyond me. Jeff (17 years ago, 12-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
 
  Re: Why do you love bley?
 
(...) ... (...) I'm not arguing against them, I'm just pointing out deficiencies that too many people ignore or gloss over entirely. Except for the dimmable fixtures in my house, all the rest were converted to CFLs the day I moved in (using bulbs (...) (17 years ago, 20-May-07, to lugnet.color)
