Fuckin' Internet. Pre-Internet we all learned that Homer was blind. Post-Internet? Tens of thousands of late-night freshman dorm conversations about how, like, the Greeks didn't see color, maaaan. 'cuz of the "wine-dark sea." Like, what's up with that? Wine isn't blue! Every navel-gazer that can't quite grow a beard will happily tell you that ancient civilizations were obviously so inferior they couldn't fucking see color but none of them are even aware of the fact that mmmmmaybe Sirius used to be red.
