<Off Topic> Mark, in case you throw a tech-geek party and need a trivia game, the color names come from the binders housing the format spec (which you probably knew already). 'Blue' is actually the marriage of 'Red Book' on the first session of the disc; the second session being 'Orange Book' format, I believe. Red + Orange = Blue. Useless. Much like my ADPT shares right now. Other formats were drawn up on napkins. These include 'High Sierra' and 'Rockridge' (unix extensions), drawn up on napkins at conventions held in hotels of those respective names. So who brought the beer, today? -MrB
