You are right, Chris, that the link is helpful; what I was
originally trying to point out in my response was that if only
there were a precise color guide, we could describe colors and be
understood perfectly by our correspondents (others misunderstood my
intent). My comment didn't have much to do with historical color
understanding, however, just with communication :)

The link Allison just posted
http://www.firemountaingems.com/details.asp?PN=H203271TL
has a Pantone guide for $20.
As far as colors changing, I see a color forecast:
http://www.firemountaingems.com/trends/fashion_trends.asp?
docid=PANTONEFORECAST
which probably matches their color book, however the numbers are not
the same as Pantone for print. If I was talking about PMS 199, is it
close to 18-1550?
Maybe if we go to the paint store and get a collection of the
colors, but then we have to be sure we're comparing Behr to Behr and
not Behr to Sherwin-Williams.
