The objections to the use of this term remind me too much of the Asians in Atlanta who are complaining about the metro lines which were color coded. They didn't like *Yellow Line* because apparently the yellow line ran through their Chinatown, and they are now demanding that it be relabeled.

Well, they better not change the line to red or the Russians will be upset.

And not green since the Irish might object.

Not white because that would obviously offend blacks.

And not black because whites might not like it.

Green is out because it's obviously too politically-correct.

How about blue? No one has yet co-opted the color blue.

Have they?

Clinically depressed people might not like *blue line*.

We can’t offend the mentally challenged, you know.
