Red

In the western world, red is an alert color. People think red is the most striking thing and mark important things red.

But in fact 5% of the male population is red-green blind. They cannot see red as bright as the rest does and most of them do not even know.

For example, if you have thin black text on white background, and to emphasize a word you print it in red, 5% of the male people will not notice. Maybe they will if they concentrate hard.

You don't have this problem with blue. Use blue to mark important things.

This is especially a hint to adobe, because I cannot see the bloody links on their crappy website!

Last night I went out in the blood car, speeding streets where Macy Gray had played two nights before and she said 'get up, get out and do something' so we did, and there her name was as we went by into the centre – Buckingham Palace up ahead darker than the sky which glowed and three days in London go past faster than on the North Coast.

Blood is usually red. (If it's not Mr. Spock's...)

red is my hair and red is the reason they sang »roxanne« to me and red is the color of hair that attracted the man to the woman and thus red was the color decided in the womb from which i came. red is the bane of my existence.
