Way to skip indigo, guys.
I did not skip indigo. I left it out on purpose. Indigo is not one of the major colors of the rainbow. It was only included by Newton for religious reasons and you probably only know it because you memorized ROYGBiV. Forget it. Seven is not lucky or religious any more than 13 is unlucky or 666 is evil. It's just a number. Newton's religious prejudice made him think he saw seven colors. I think Newtons was one of, if not the greatest scientist ever, but he failed with indigo.
