Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 17c17

In western society black tends to have a negative connotation. In arguments things can be black or white, or shades of grey?, the intensity used as an analogue for things such as truthfulness or right and wrong. (Note that when referring to the intensity of pigment or light, black is always the complete lack thereof.)
