Well, some academics managed to locate a FUNCTIONING tetrachromat.



I guess that may be humbling for those on list, who believe they are good
at distinguishing hues :)

Edmund,



According to some of my readings and talk with some knowledgeable academic
people, the fact that some women can have a fourth cone in their retina
does not necessarily translate into a different set of cmf?

I guess you're right. In particular a tetrachromat human female will
perceive a different world from a run of the mill trichromat male ...
