It's basic physics Liz. Most 15 year olds should be able to recite it perfectly. (Biology with the chlorophyll)
I know nothing about Che Guevara though, or economics, and I was shite at history (although as we age, don't find find it more interesting, or it it just me?)

Wrong way around. It's the sea that looks blue because it's reflecting the sky.
That's why the sea looks grey/green when it's cloudy.

ok geek talk, which i thought was interesting if you dont see a mirror as a glass object:
There is no such thing as a perfect mirror . This means it reflects most but not all light . The light which is NOT reflected is missing in the reflection.
Therefore if the incident light is white -- then it is not white upon reflection.
A silvered mirror is almost perfect -- but a polished copper mirror is not
the surface absorbes some colors ( wavelengths of light ) and therefore causes a colored reflection
'Nuff said

It doesn't have a colour as it only reflects colours.
