Abstract
Most clichés contain some element of truth. Although the colors in our common speech are often referred to as being “warm” (reds and yellows) and “cold” (blues and whites), there is some scientific history behind these popular inaccuracies. In this article, I address the historical origin of these myths and explain with a physical model how they have been supported by legitimate—but ultimately incorrect—scientific inferences.
