ok this puzzles me a bit.
You know the overheads old professors that don't know how to use powerpoint (or refuse to, whatever) uses. What would happen if you make, like, a gigantig overhead. And put a continious strip of color on a transparancy (ignore the fact that we're talking about color PIGMENTS here, so that my "theory" would hold anyway) but is color continious? Like, would you start to see "pixels" on the overhead if you had one sufficiently large? Is color countable, is it discrete or is it continious? With color, i'm more than likely refering to photons with different wavelengths.
