Yes, when discussing color temperature, cooler means "more bluish" and warmer means "more reddish". It is true, however, that just like the hottest part of a flame is where it is bluest, the cooler looking colors correspond to wavelengths that are generated by hotter black-body radiators. (see above link)

Yes, when discussing color temperature, cooler means "more bluish" and warmer means "more reddish". The color professionals I talk with never use "cooler" or "warmer", because it is just too confusing. They'll say "lower" or "higher" color temp, or redder or bluer shift. Every occurrence of "warm" in that Wikipedia article is in quotes, and immediately followed by "lower color temp".

When I want to be warmer, I find a woman. When I want to be cooler, I marry that same woman.

Wait, I just realized sexist comedy isn't funny, and it would have been more relevant, anyway, if I was basing my observations on the woman's color.
