    3-D glasses

    OK, a little help for the intellectually challenged. While watching the super bowl commercials with the 3-D glasses, I noticed the lenses were marked right and left, amber left, blue right.

    I tried switching them during the ads, and it didn't seem to work. Someone please explain to me why this is so.

    If you reverse the colors, the 3D effect would look like it was sinking into the screen instead of popping out. Since your brain doesn't expect that, it does not perceive it as readily.
