14. Science / C. Induction / 5. Paradoxes of Induction / a. Grue problem

7296	'Grue' is not a colour
	Full Idea: 'Grue' is not a colour.
	From: Tom Milsted (talk [2006]), quoted by PG - Db (ideas)
	A reaction: This simple observation strikes me as rather crucial in assessing Goodman's paradox. Blue is a colour, but grue is some sort of behaviour. Blue is a secondary quality, but grue seems to be a primary quality.
