There's no way that I can begin to see that A and B are the same grey here. But there it is...
Wow

That is by far the best optical illusion I've seen in many a while.
I saved the image and looked at the color values for the two squares... they are both #6B6B6B. (with minor variations)
Amazing.

A larger F... Little Yellow Note Sticky, and cut two little holes in it.
Wow.

Are you reading it, too? That's where I saw that same version of that illusion before.
Arrgghhh!

Digital Color Meter does not lie

I used
/Applications/Utilities/Digital Color Meter to check it out without cutting and pasting. #6B6B6B. The scary thing is that even in the color meter which has a window so small you can only see one square at a time they STILL looked different!
