    It’s silly to care about this, I know, but that’s my car!

    I was afraid of that.

    Has that fixed it?

    Right now, the "Colour-Blind Fans of Alpha Flight" (that's right, the CBFAF) are organizing a march on your home with picket signs.

    I'd suggest painting your door red, and staying indoors.

    Luckily for me, very few people can march across the Pacific Ocean.

    (Of course, my car's the only one that's not white or pale grey - are the images visible yet? I've never had trouble seeing them.)

    I saw it; it was clearly purple.

    It's both. I'm going for the Joker look.

    Incidentally, you are Big Brother's dream; a citizen proud that they can be spied on.

    As long as it's just my car they're spying on, and not me.
    It's also amazing because it caught my car on one of the few days that I drove (for some reason) rather than rode my pushbike to work. (I park that in the basement, where the Googlemobile cannot see it!)

    Ah, but Googleman ALWAYS sees! He knows when you are sleeping and he knows when you're awake, he knows when you ride your pushbike to work, so hide your green car for goodness sake!
