   You mean, I've inadvertantly been upgrading my mental asbestos-wear!!??   
      
   Never cared much for the purposeful flame echos...  I continued lurking   
   in Snooze for the (recently VERY) occasional tidbits of on-topic, or at   
   least Fido related, material... along with the occasional interesting   
   off-topic (non-flame) discussions.   
      
   BTW, noted your discussion of the most easily seen car color.  I think   
   you are wrong, despite your scientific explanation.  White can be   
   surprisingly hard to see...  as can, even more surprisingly, red.  As an   
   owner of a red car (more than one, actually), and from other experience,   
   red, for whatever reason, can be totally ignored by the brain.  I once   
   almost side-swiped a red car on the Baltimore Beltway that I didn't   
   notice next to me until almost too late.  White fades into the roadway,   
   especially this time of year, with salt-covered roads.   
      
   What research has actually found is the most easily seen color, is the   
   bright lime/yellow-green that you sometimes see on firetrucks.  That,   
   for whatever reason, again, gets processed best by the brain, and can be   
   seen in the widest variety of circumstances.   
      
   Now, were you trolling on that topic?  :)   
      
   And, no, there is no way at all that I can be persuaded to ever again   
   try to post in that echo, for any reason at all....  I much* prefer my   
   totally invisible status.  :)  (and no, you may not cross-post this   
   there!)

   ... A good man gone wrong is usually a bad man found out   
      
      
   PS, that tag was just above the actual random selected one in the   
   list...   Seemed rather appropriate for the echo in question...?    neb
