Speaking of drinking, I just watched the Mythbusters episode where Adam and Jamie tested methods of sobering up. I laughed till tears came out of my eyes when Adam stepped off the treadmill, then accidentally stepped on it, fell, hit his head and knocked his glasses off, and then got promptly thrown backwards into the green screen because the treadmill was still moving.

Damn what is facebook doing. That new layout sucks with all the lame quizzes. Anyone found a way to remove that shit? If not I think I'm gonna ditch the thing, isn't of any use anymore now.
If someone was born with a mixup in their brain that essentially mapped every color to a different one would there be anyway of testing for this? Let me explain. The primary colors, blue, red and yellow. Say this mixup causes their brain to switch the blue and red colors. So they would look at the sky and call it blue because that is what everyone has always told them is the name for that color but really they would be seeing the color we think of as red. Vice versa, if you asked them what color blood was they would say red but actually be looking at the color you think of as blue.
They would still pass all the colorblind tests since they can distinguish between colors. The color wheel would still hold true, it would just be flipped in this case.
So, could you test for this? Is there an incredibly simple answer I am missing? If I picked a bad example of blue being switched with red is there any mapping which couldn't be tested for; maybe a complete mirror image of the visible light based on their frequencies? I'm not high but would it help explain my ramblings if I was?

Please tell me this is The Ultimate Question.
If so, 42.
