In his color circle , between the colors Black and White, Red has been placed on the one side since the classical antiquity, and Blue on the other; Yellow then comes between White and Red, pale Yellow between White and Yellow, Orange between Yellow and Red.

Yeah, well, I missed the first ten minutes because I was actually working and then it was too late -- my son was watching Spongebob. I wasn't going to kick him off. I'll start catching up in a few weeks. I'll have my S-I-L tape it when she gets around to watching it on her PVR. Or I'll watch it in the summer when the DVD comes out. Grad school starts Wednesday and I'll have to cut back anyway. (sigh)
