Yes.  But looking at colors on a monitor screen is not at all a fair
test compared with the original color chips, and in any event not all
monitors display things the same way.  The dark orange on a PC screen may
look quite red on a Mac.  Indeed, internal evidence shows that this show
was HTML-ized on a Mac.

Whoever made the slide show knew too much psychology and not enough
biophysics.
