Reply #17: I used to...

I'm old enough that I remember a time when they were plain old-fashioned white. When they first started making them orange (actually, they looked more pinkish at the time), I thought it was really weird until someone explained to me that they were using a technology that was more energy-efficient. Over the years, I stopped noticing them, to the point that I would probably be weirded out by lights that weren't orange.

On the other hand, I am always struck by an orange moon. It doesn't seem frightning to me, but always makes me feel like I've been transported to an older, more rural time when people spoke of the "harvest moon."

And I've never noticed the importance of orange (or any other color) in my dreams/nightmares.
