You know I'm kidding, right? Well, not about the fact that I do love pink. But the other stuff.
 
I voted black...which is the obvious best choice. However, black is not a color. It is the absence of color.
 
I think i know who voted Rainbow

OK...technically speaking...color is simply the reflection of light in different frequencies of the spectrum. Black objects are absorbing all light and therefore do not reflect any light/colors. White objects are reflecting all light/colors. So when you look at an object that is seen as a specific color, you are actually seeing the only color that it is not absorbing.

So in truth, calling one the absence of light/color and the other the blending of all light/color is simple matter of perspective. Are you referring to what is absorbed or what is reflected.

The reason I choose to say that white is a mixture of all colors is because when you perform the simple test of spinning a color wheel, it turns white, not black. And, when we refer to a color, it is commonly accepted that the color reflected is the color of the object.

So...in conclusion...if we want to say that white is the absence of color, we have to call a car the we see as red to actually be every color but red.

Or maybe I have it all wrong.
