Bleen

A term coined in conjunction with the term "grue" by Nelson Goodman to illustrate the problem of induction.

In this context, bleen means "blue if observed before a time t, and green if observed after," whereas grue is the other way around.
You cannot prove inductively that all sapphires are blue; you can only say that they are bleen.

Bleens are sightless, land dwelling invertebrates, so named for their call, which sounds rather like "Bleen." The color of bleen comes from their opalescant, shifting, multi-hued bodies. They are unusual among invertibrates in that they are large, warm-blooded, and do not need to be kept wet, possessing a soft, non-posionous skin that is generally dry to the touch. They are approximately equal to humans in avarage mass, but undefineable in length or height as they are somewhat shapeshifting and ameoba-like.
