such that an orange (the thing itself) is said to possess a certain colour and flavour... a certain texture, weight, solidity and temperature... and that it has a certain resonance (the sound it makes when you whack it...

and yet now imagine that you cannot see the orange... what colour is it...
oh you say... it is still orange... because someone else is seeing it... or could see it...
but if there is no other person... if there was no seeing at all... what colour is the 'orange'...
