A quick question for those who have problems distinguishing colors.... or
those who know about colorblindness.

Let's assume I need to add a set of indicators to some new products.   I'm
considering using some multicolored leds (aka dual, tri, full) for
indication on a single led.   For instance red might mean one voltage and
green another.  Knowing what I know about colorblindness (think high school
biology - like 30 years ago), I realize that this would be a very bad thing
to do - or at least would be useless for some of my customers.

What I don't understand is if there are color pairs which are 'safe'.  I.E.
red/yellow vs red/green.  Or Blue/Amber, etc.....

So, now is the chance for all of you who can't distinguish led colors to
let me know what stupid things *not* to do.   Or perhaps suggest what the
best options are.
