Measure the spectral distribution of a scene (with a spectrometer, for
example).  Then take a picture of that scene, in color (digital or film).
Now try to reconstruct the original spectral distribution curve using only
the three data points provided by the RGB values in the color image.  You
won't be able to do it, and you'll discover very quickly just how much
information is gone.
