Yes! I've always liked this as an example of the alien-ness
of Klingons. I'd doubt that we'd see them use the colors
Blue, Green and Yellow distinctly (as we appear to see them do)
if they couldn't perceive them.
I remember that HolQeD article, but don't see it in the index at
www.kli.org. When was that, and can someone summarize?
