color is subjective. kinda hard to nail anything down. believe me i do ALOT of printing and have to have a variety of colors on hand because i have 3 totally different colors of blue that 3 different customer refer to as "true blue". lighting and how yah have your monitor set will influence what colors you see on your screen. plus everyones eyes are just a lil bit different and everyones brain is ALOT different so how someone interprets color will be different from you by either a tiny amount or a whole lot(color blindness).

Forgive me for any attempt I made at applying a psycopaths words to weeds. In an attempt to make them apply. I will not quote contriversial people again or attempt to get attention by doing so (not that I was in the first place). If I have offended you I appoligise profusly. Obviously any reading I do in my free time should not be reflected on cp or anyother non-World War II forums. I suppose I tried to connect those two "worlds" in a vain attempt. I realise now that people in the WWII mind-set and cp mind-set are ticked off by much different things. Thanks for your time, effort, and comments

Did someone say they're offended?  If I see that quote below a question about Sarracenias, I'm not offended.  If I see it in big red letters on signs outside a synagogue, I'm offended.  Context means a lot.  But not everything. I caught a load of crap once for suggesting a Jewish acquaintance read Mein Kampf.  The context was fine, because we were talking about how people should understand their enemies.  But he loves an opportunity to grandstand in front of a large group.  If you walk the fine line along the edge of controversy, you'll fall off now and then.

Yes. And some people seemed slightly annoyed. I am not sure whether it was over the quote or over the threads. It does not really matter to me. Call me a liberal (I am) but I think anyone should be able to say anything they want as long as no-one listens or rather acts. Now I know better then to quote psycopaths. I completely understand why so many websites about Germany during WWII have a disclaimer.

*Caugh* And as to be more relevant as to the way the thread as actually been going -sorry bout that, went off on a tangent :p-. I think that there was a slight misunderstanding, if you want I would leave the quote, there was a slight misunderstanding, but I don't think anyone was really annoyed... Oh well, whatever you wanna do...

Of course quotes are okay.. I'm an example of that. I can't remember a time when I didn't have at least one quote in my sig.
