I think this is true. I had a neighbor who was color blind, and he
could see green ok but not pink. He was doing some bush-hogging for
me and I had labeled all the young trees with pink surveyor tape, but
he mowed them down anyway because he couldn't see the bright
flourescent pink tape! that was my first exposure to real color
blindness.
