Okay, the philosophy on this thread is good, however, flawed. In the case of color, color is measurable. For instance, orange occurs when light has hit the orange and bounced off. This light can then have its wavelength measured and that particular wavelength is scientifically labeled as orange. However, I do agree that in your eyes this could appear as green, but you would call it orange anyway so it's good philosophy.
