*That's all very nice but you haven't answered my question, I will repeat
it.  If something with the "red quality" is illuminated with blue light it
will subjectively look black, does it still have the red quality or does it
now have the black quality? *

*You are the one who introduced the idea that ripe tomatoes have a "red
quality" , not me. All I want to know is, do those ripe tomatoes still have
the "red quality" if they are being illuminated with blue light? The
question is clear and could be answered with a simple yes or no. *
