   In early experiments, we found that people's responses cluster around   
   175, which coincidentally is the same as the named HTML color   
   turquoise . This is interesting, because the nominal boundary between   
   blue and green is at 180, the named HTML color cyan . That means most   
   people's boundaries are shifted toward saying that cyan is blue.

   I'd have to take that "exam" over again, and do it slowly.  I use four   
   different web browsers, and when I tried the test, that browser did   
   not show the color to evaluate...just in B&W.  Turquoise is green in   
   my eyes, btw, not green as suggested in test result.
