Why is the sky blue?
This is my third attempt in as many years to bring reason to this question. The 2 links below point to the detailed scientific analysis of my common sense reasoning. 1/1/2008
Why is the sky blue?
This essay will not attempt to reiterate what has been said before. If you are unfamiliar with my previous arguments, you should read the pages on the two links above, and then return to this.
The question has thus evolved, from 'why is the sky blue?', to :

Why is the sky not violet?

Why do people believe in the scattered nonsense that cannot produce a graph or diagram or (more importantly) a mathematical principle? Is it just that they are Emperors without any clothes, too embarrassed to admit they are wrong?

I have another, more down to earth, common sense theory:

These people are just color blind. This is why they are so interested in why the sky is blue initially, because color confuses them, it interests them. I am interested purely to write an accurate science predifiction story that can describe the conditions of light on a planet around a blue star.

The main reason to believe that these people are color blind is that all of them claim not to be able to see the color violet.
Violet: A visible color of the visible spectrum.
Violet: A visible color of the visible spectrum.
Violet: A visible color of the visible spectrum.

The above blocks are more or less violet. The exact wavelength is not important here. Choose which one(s) are most like violet yourself. I can see them all perfectly.

If we could not see violet, it would not be part of what we call the visible spectrum.

Another odd thing about these theorists is that they never seem to put color on their websites. Like a blue background for instance. Other's claim the Sun is white! It is a type 'G' star. Yellow. Not white.
