but every temperature corresponds to a color, or at least to a frequency of electromagnetic waves and similarly every color coresponds to a temperature. For any temperature, radiation of all frequencies is produced but the intensity peaks at a specific frequency. The temperature coresponding to visable light is very high (the temperature of the sun). objects closer to 20C are all radiating mostly infrared, which is why i'm assuming DG is choosing IR. I picked UV cause you just don't get much of that around here except from the sun.
DOOM!

To restate kroner's argument: We really don't get much ultraviolet. The sun does indeed send us enough to give us sunburns, but our atmosphere (specifically, the ozone layer) blocks most of it, and nothing else really emits enough UV to speak of. On the other hand, we've got infrared sources all around us.
Now to counter kroner's "nothing is UV colored" thing: Most ultraviolet blocking fabrics reflect ultraviolet light, so they're ultraviolet colored. I see ads for UV colored shirts all the time. There are even things that you can put in your laundry to dye everything UV colored. Besides, almost everyone at the beach has UV body paint on. There's too much ultraviolet stuff around.
