Which of this is the primary color? Yellow or green?

I have been thinking about this one for a long time. At school we learn that the primary colors are red, yellow and blue, and from these 3 we can mix them up to make all the other colors. So where does the green come from on a TV screen or computer screen?

Greatest hero in war? Greatest spiritual hero? Greatest political hero? I'm talking about people like Crockett, Wallace, Suu Kyi (think female Gandhi), Jesus, Washington, Alexandar, etc.

Why is the last name "Washington" so uncommon among White Americans ?

George Washington was the first President and you would think that today, there would be many Caucasians with the last name just like Johnson, Jones, Murphy, Gibson, etc. And although I've never met a White Washington, I know a few Black ones.

OJ Simpson has written a book and is in the news. When did the case against OJ Simpson come apart?

Did:

1...The District Attorney's Office being represented by Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden do a poor job in prosecuting OJ Simpson?

2...Did Johnny Cochoran, F. Lee Bailey, and company put on a great defense?

3...Did the jurors simply not look at the facts and/or were the jurors reluctant to find a celebrity guilty of murder?

4...Any thoughts about Judge Lance Ito, who was the presiding judge throughout the trial.

5...Was OJ Simpson innocent and did someone else commit the crimes?

6...Did the media have any role that may have influenced the verdict?

7...Did the system of justice come apart or did it prevail in the trial of OJ Simpson?

8...And, can you say the same influences that were there for OJ Simpson were there in the trial of Robert Blake?

9...Did the police plant any evidence and were the police at fault in collecting the evidence including the DNA evidence.

If you remembered the trial, did the glove fit OJ Simpson...?

Your thoughts...

What's it like to be dead?

If we don't have souls, then being dead would just be like being in a deep sleep, right? We wouldn't be conscious, we wouldn't have any sense of time, we wouldn't feel or think or experience anything at all... right? If we DO have souls, then would our souls be conscious 24/7? Or would we fade in and out of consciousness? Could our souls travel anywhere in the universe? Where exactly are heaven and hell, anyway? Are they in a different dimension?

Am I losing something or just ahead of my time?

When I first started comedy, it was amzing. I'd work on a joke and people would be laughing wholeheartedly. Now sometimes I have people laughing but I just feel like somethings missing.

I even do improv and it seems like its made me more weirder around people. What used to make people laugh just makes them look. Its weird. And I don't know if I've become extremely out of it but sometimes I'm just burnt out on stage and seldomly there's no sense of inspiration. I just feel like nobody understands me. I call my friends and they don't pick up. I know I'm a good guy what's the problem?

What does it mean when you read a book and you are having trouble putting it down?

Whether the book is refrence, non-fiction or fiction, when you read from cover to cover, chapter to chapter page to page and time flies so by and by the time you've finished the book, before you know it it's 4AM the next morning?

Is this bad?

I am currentley a Sophmore at Upland High School. I play the Bass Clarinet and the Bagpipes in the school marching band. My section in nthe band has decided that we don't use neck straps for the Bass Clarinets. I have gone through 2 years of marching band without a neck strap so now it is more of just an annoyance than help. Everyone we talk to says it is bad for your thumb to have all that weight on it. is that true?
