Does that mean that the top and bottom of this Apple image look the same to you?

What exactly is the deficiency then?

Actually I think you just got confused with left/right

I can differentiate between green and red just fine. I just failed the red/green/number chart thing.

Ok I just want to clear something up,

Colour Defficient: Means that you can't see certain colours
Colour Blind: Means you can't see any colours

That still confuses me! I can pick red and green out perfectly its just those stupid ass gay charts! Really how is being red/green colorblind gonna hurt? The only answer i got from a recruiter was determining the different colors of the smoke as in green is safe and red means get the hell outta there. All according to my friends recruiter.

...You can be a pilot. You just have to cheat the test. :S

My mom's friend did that. He's FULL colorblind (I think) and he cheated somehow on the test, and flew in the AF for like 4-5 years.

Usually it's just an inability to distinguish between red and green. Seeing in black and white:

At uni I was next to a student who asked me to explain a system diagram. I took off into "well, the red arrow here means - and if it's a green arrow it means - " only for him to look at me in puzzlement and say, "oh but I'm colour blind."

There's not many professions that require you to be able to see in full colour I would imagine, or even have some colour senses, but since dealing with computer software problems you often see red warnings, green for okay, (might be simplified but colour is usually very important to tell when something has changed) he might have chosen a better degree. lol

He was fully colour blind.

Yep!

But it's not as simple as that - because in your nice coloured message to us brave few..   I can actually see something and guess a good part of it - but you propably painted it yourself and a real test would be jibberish to me - but even then, there are test pass and those I see nothing.


Short RL Story:
Me and some friends went to an exhibition of the Technisches Hilfswerk/Federal Agency for Technical Relief. They are - among a lot of other things - specialised in removing minefields, usually in other countries, thank god...
To demonstrate how nasty these APMs are, they hid them - being green mostly - in the grass. Now, my ("normalsighted") friends had a hard time to spot them - although they were clearly to be seen - for me. ;o)

There is a theorie, that colordeficiency was not eliminated by evolution, because it gave some other advantages in being able to differentiate more hues of a certain color in exchange for blurring different colors. Seeing a snake or a scorpion is somewhat more important than telling which fruit is ripe and which will give you one day of diarrhea.
