The whole science of color has always been interesting to me. I wonder if anyone has done an experiment where the participants in a blue room were compared to participants in a red room. I hear things like red cars get pulled over more. Anybody remember when Dole's handlers told him to scrap the Brown suits when running for president in '96?

O.K., too much analysis. Blue is the best.
