Ha! This thread just keeps getting better all the time. I can forsee some major wars arising soon over this "What color is the universe" debate, and all kinds of possiblities for martial glory of a kind not seen since the Crusades. Have at the infidels, I say!

The Rolling Stones may agree that the Universe is black...or at least should be. The song "Paint It Black" comes to mind. Disaffected teenagers in my hometown of Orillia also seem to favour black as the basic color...if black can be called a color at all.

"Black" people, of course, are not black in the first place...nor am I white...but what's the use in trying to get anywhere with that argument?

The thing is, why go and fight over something real when you can fight over complete illusions? And it's good for the economy too...
