Sure. Obviously a ploy to confuse the enemy.

Beige?? Aw, and I just bought drapes to complement the turquoise...

A real man wouldn't know the difference between "turquoise" and "bluish green." And beige?!? A man would call it light brown.

I think these astronomers must be effeminate.

Does the universe have track lighting?

He had a color convulsion due to extreme heat caused by global cooling.....or .no..that was.......hey,it's hot in here.

The true color of the universe.

Darn, I just finished buying turquoise stuff to complement the universe. Ebay, here I come! < /sarcasm>

Jesse Jackson isn't going to like this.

Dang, and I don't have a thing to wear that matches.

Just a fine point... This research (however pointless it may be) was done at The Johns Hopkins University... not John Hopkin's or John Hopkins. As a student at JHU, it just really bugs me when people get that wrong. So should I be proud that my school is tapping into the fashion conscience of the universe? And I thought my $32,000 a year tuition was going to waste. *rolling eyes*

Oh, darn! This changes all MY plans for the future!

[ThinkLikeWaterAndReeds]

In January, the true colour of the Universe was declared as somewhere between pale turquoise and aquamarine, by Ivan Baldry and Karl Glazebrook at John Hopkin's University in Baltimore Maryland

See there, now the obvious problem is that they were too near the ocean and the colors they saw were reflections of the ocean off our own atmosphere - sheeeeeeeeesh! If they had only been in Kansas they would have known the color was golden from the wheat reflections. Really now, the color is chartruse if you get out into it.

(Stop Press !!) The Universe is not turquoise - it's beige

Whew. What a relief. I have nothing that goes with turquoise, but beige works with everything.

But on the downside, like with white shoes, you can't wear it after Labor Day.
