You are wrong. Since we have no sensory perception of sight at all, black as
a color does not even exist to us. I have one glass eye and one dead eye.
That means I have no working lenses in my head at this moment. That means
that I am physically incapable of seeing the color black. And yes, black is
a color. If you have no light perception at all, if you have no sensory
perception of anything involving sight, that means you can not, for all
intents and purposes, see black. You do not see. You do not see black, you
do not see nothing. you may as well have been born without the sense of
sight, which is what I was. I was born with 4 senses, that means I do not
know what sight is. That means I have never seen a color, and I think
Charles is the same way.

Hi charles.
that lack of anything is! for a sighted person like seeing black, ust the
same for a deaf person (assuming they don't have any buz or other tones in
their ears), that they hear nothing and so hear silence.
Just as however the silence in a series of sounds is only emphasized by
the sounds around it however, the absense of light that is black only
takes on meaning when it's seen in respect to other objects. That is why
in one sense it is true tha t a totally blind person sees nothing but
black, but in another sense it is utterly false because black, even though
it is an absense only exists by a cntrast to the existant colours around
it.
Hope this makes sense.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
