    I guess it adds up to why you want to know.
    If you're a scientist, then white is the reflection of all colour, and black is the absorption of all colour.
    But to a quilter, white is a colour.
    To a laundry worker, white is a goal.
    To an old woman, white hair is a crown well earned.
    It's all in the context.
    But I do like the smoothie idea. Can mine have blueberries in it?

    To me it is a color, but we were taught in school that it was not a color.

    I heard white and black and gray are shades. Interesting subject though. Why are they not on the color wheels?????
