half uncontious sleeping for whale and dolphin. Half of the brain will sleep for 2 hours, only 1 eye open, the contious half brain will pay attention to the environment/danger and make sure the whale come to the surface to breath.

primary color 红蓝黄;但他们并不是完美的主色调,例如黄蓝混在一起不是很纯粹的绿,还要加其他颜色。牛顿同学提出关于颜色的光谱学说。A 从心理学?的角度切入,试图找出 relationship between color and emotion,未遂,但找出色与色之间的关系。B也是想找颜色和情绪之间关系,找到,并提出primary color的理论并写信给A。A这个不要脸的家伙用了B的理论出版了一本关于颜色的书;虽然在书最后附上B的信,但是坚称 they happened to find the primary color at the same time, the letter from B does not influence A.
