You have mentioned seeing yellow flowers on our early morning runs - is it possible you've been on the chartreuse, the night before? :-) 3. Does this mean we are all smarter then we think we are? 4. If you don't tremor, how do you know if you over excited or inhibited? ;-) Thanks for the comments.

I got this from the links you included in your post - thought some would find it interesting! Cheers 2) Chartreuse is the most visible color. Yellow-green, chartreuse, sits right in the middle of the frequencies of visible light. Your eyes have receptors for blue, green and red. Being in the middle, yellow-green triggers the most of these receptors to fire, making it easy to spot. In some cities, firetrucks have been changed from red to a yellow-green color to make them more visible. 3) Your subconscious is smarter than you are. Or at least more powerful. In one study, a square was assigned to a location on a computer screen through a complex pattern. After watching it, people began to get results better than chance of picking out where the square would pop up next. But when asked to consciously determine the pattern, even given a few hours, nobody could do it. 4) You have two nervous systems. One set controls excitation and the other controls inhibition. If you hold out your hand, you might notice minor tremors. This is caused by slight, random differences in the amount each of the two systems are firing.
