We thought this would die down, but the tea leaves were speaking to us – change it! The question we kept getting, almost daily, was which was worse, one or five, white or blue? It was politely explained to us that we should have used red and green. I thought that made sense because the origin of this site’s MS-DEFCON system was, in fact, the military’s. At the time, we conformed the colors of the levels to the US military DEFCON system, with white (level 1) being the most dangerous condition and blue (5) the safest. Unexpectedly, one of the top complaints we’ve both received has to do with the MS-DEFCON banner images we changed back in May.

We grin and light up when complimented we grit our teeth and bear it when our correspondents are less kind.

Susan and I get a lot of email (we do our best to answer everyone).
