It is getting rather prickly and rude. Cheers.

The fact is no one knows how other people see colors. I often see black as green or blue in certain types of light. My wife only sees black. But how do we know what she sees as black I don't see as red? That's one of the reason I don't worry about color correction on my monitor, which has auto white balance. If I photograph a cd cover and it looks the same in my hand as it does on the screen, I am happy. Of course I don't know what anyone else's monitor is calibrated to, or how they see the colors.
I don't print anything. If I did, I would probably want to see the same colors in the print as I do on the monitor, and if I didn't would want to calibrate the monitor to be able to accurately preview a print. I sometime see pictures on line where the sky looks greenish to me. Maybe it looks blue to the poster. Maybe what I would see as a blue sky looks purple to them. There's no way to know.
