Results
In early experiments, we found that people's responses cluster around
175, which coincidentally is the same as the named HTML color
turquoise . This is interesting, because the nominal boundary between
blue and green is at 180, the named HTML color cyan . That means most
people's boundaries are shifted toward saying that cyan is blue.

I'd have to take that "exam" over again, and do it slowly.  I use four
different web browsers, and when I tried the test, that browser did
not show the color to evaluate...just in B&W.  Turquoise is green in
my eyes, btw, not green as suggested in test result.
