Not counting the greys and primaries.

I got the colors from Ken Tyler's kolors.inc and kolors2.inc, which include the
stock colors that ship with povray.

one of the files has an off-by-one error in the calculations.  He used a K value
of 256 for the first one, but the second one uses a K value of 255.

I added three more shades of Alice Blue (main color block, top left) because I
was wondering why it looked almost white (Hint: It's almost white, and it's
difficult to pick out subtle variations in colors that are side by side.)

One thing I've noticed, however, is that the primary blue doesn't look like
primary blue (I'd expect it to look more like the blues on the right end of the
first row of the main block) this may be due to being bracketed by Green and
Yellow

first image has an assumed_gamma of 1.0, the second is 2.5
