Man has for many centuries tried to define the relationship between Thought and the Color Blue. Aristotle ¹ once remarked upon the fact that Man thinks best when surrounded with Blue, and that men who don't get enough Blue² become weak of mind and lack the mental skill to even figure I + I = II.

In fact, a whole science has sprung up almost overnight to tackle these weighty color issues which define our mental healthiness and plan of attack towards the world. Noted Psychoptric, Proffessor von Carpworth, has spent his entire life in the pursuit of the Truth involving Blue and other colors. He was the first to get a PhD in Psychoptrics³ and has since started the study of Psychocromatic Disorders, including Blue Deprivation. He had this to say about Blue:

Blue is the slowest color of the seeable spectrum. Its not exactly lazy, its just relaxed, and this relaxedness goes directly into the Emotion center of the brain. Blue is calm, cool, relaxed, pleasant, smart, and imaginative, and thus we envy it. In envying it we try to take on its characteristics, we try to emulate it, and thus we become a smarter, cooler, calmer, more pleasant, and more relaxed. However, this is a long process to turn from Animal into Blue, and we still have a ways to go... but I bet that in the end we shall evolve into a higher state of Blue.

The Shades of Blue

Blue is most notably the only color to have so many different shades that each have lives of their own. The shades of Blue are some of the most varied colors known to man, yet they each keep their unique blueness that minds them to the world and to man.

In order to investigate further into the shades of Blue we turn now to Chromatologist Bill Tunaman, who is also the Assistant of Professor von Carpworth, "You have your Cyan, Cerulean Blue, Mauve, Ultramauve, Aquamarine, Aqua, and others which each are surprising entities to themselves. Each have their own personality. Compare that to the shades of Green, Brown or Pink which only have one offspring⁴ each; Chartreuse, Burnt Sienna, and Magenta⁵ respectively. Orange doesn't even have any Offspring. However, Orange has a lot of Power and if it did produce an offspring we would have to watch out."

A Blue Offspring with the Power of Orange?

"Theoretically, it is possible. However, it would be something you can't find on earth... there is even a technical term for such a theoretical color, we call it Hydromarange... we haven't found any way of creating it yet, though."
