There was a discussion of trying to balance color by reading a color meter. The discussion moved to handling fluorescent sources.
Here's the pertinent text:
Looking at my color meter III it is telling you how to balance between warm (3200) and cooler (5500) color temperatures by adding CTO (amber) or CTB gelles or filters. The second reading is telling you how to balance between the magenta and green. A typical office flo gives 5690K and +137 blue to get to sunlight and 19M to absorb the green.
