Finally Jack became skilled enough to initiate a "conversation" by depressing a key saying What color? Seeing Jack's key light up, Jill would promptly peek behind a curtain in his own cubicle. There, hidden from Jack's view, one of three bulbs (red, green and yellow) would light up. Having been taught to recognize the color, Jill, moving back in front of Jack, would depress a key identified by a letter representing that color.
