."Calvin's
world suddenly has no hue, value, or chroma. He asks if the photoreceptors
in his eyes have stopped working, or has the fundamental nature of light
changed? Perhaps something has caused electromagnetic radiation to defy
separation into a spectrum. As he walks, he wonders if objects no longer
reflect certain wavelengths.
Whatever
the case, it's clear to Calvin that there's no point in discussing things
with Dad. Dad tells Calvin that the problem is that Calvin sees everything
in terms of black and white. Calvin angrily replies that 'sometimes that's
the way things are.'
[From
Calvin & Hobbes, 3 Feb 1991]
