A large part of my job as a wealth manager is to read. I probably read eight to ten hours per day, picking up a wide variety of information along the way. I’ve decided to post some that I think you’ll find fascinating or fun. Here’s the first:
Traffic lights are thought of as red, yellow, and green. Many aren’t. Red lights are actually a mix of red and orange lights while green lights contain blue lights, too. Why? To allow red/green colorblind drivers the ability to distinguish between the two. Source: http://nowiknow.com/television-dreams/

i had absolutely no idea, but it makes perfect sense )
I’d wondered why, with so many color-blind people, traffic safety engineers stayed with red and green. Now I know how they were able to do it while aiding those who who might not see regular red or green.
I didn’t know that, how fascinating
I’m glad it was new for you too, Joanne.
