Colorblind Dwarf?

Fundin sent the following report to TMN:

Hi Para,

I recently went to look at purchasing some new rugs for my home. I saw what I thought was a nice orange rug, but when I looked into purchasing it, I was told it was yellow. Rubbing my drunken eyes, I checked again, but sure enough apparently it was yellow! I left a little confused, deciding not to buy such a shoddily labeled item from an apparently reputable store!

I then proceeded back to the pub :0) What next, chairs masquerading as beds? ;)

It IS yellow. Please adjust your monitor.

I'd say it's more on the orange end of the gold spectrum.

It's no way yellow. I'm have my monitor calibrated for design work so i know a yellow and an orange when i see them and this is far more orange than yellow :)

I'm curious who said it was yellow. For whoever that was, take a look at this image, and tell me what color these oranges are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ambersweet_oranges.jpg
