....That gives us a solid 1 vote for BLUE 1 vote for CHARTREUSE (mis-spelled)
1 vote for GLEPPRUL 1 vote for GREY 15 votes for GREEN (plus one
vote for a *BIG* GREEN) 2 votes for GRULPLE 1 vote for MAROON 1 vote
for MAUVE 1 vote for OCTARINE 1 vote for PLAID 1 vote for PERIWINKLE
1 vote for PREEN 1 vote for PRELPEN 1 vote for PRURN 1 vote for PUCE
13 votes for PURPLE 1 vote for VERMILION (mis-spelled) 1 vote for
WHITE So, obviously, *GREEN* is the clear winner, with 16 out of 46
votes cast. ......and if I see ONE more entry on
"GREEN/PURPLE" cluttering up this newsgroup, the offender
is going to get a six-thousand-line UUENCODED binary of Kermit The
Frog singing "IT AIN'T EASY BEING GREEN!" by return mail.
Now, can we please get back to wrangling about IMPORTANT things,
like asking JMS to let us see Ivanova in a thin silk teddy instead
of the long royal-blue robe/peignoir number?
