If the sky could be any colour other than blue on a sunny cloudless day,
what colour would you want it to be? Do you think that we are all so used to the blue colour that we simply couldn't accept any other colour and would get depressed or at least very annoyed about it?

What, no poll :wink: ?
 
Hot pink and purple, like a beautiful sunset.

We need a poll.
 
Purple with the sun transitioning from yellow to orange to crimson.

Reminds me of the 60's. :cool:
 
Oh no it's ... paisley. (FST)
 
Why did paisley become such a fad?
 
We need a poll.

A power poll? A telephone poll? Or maybe a smelly pool, a pollcat? I think pitot should get the poll-itician award. Or maybe find a more meaningful diversion than PF polling.

Paisley adds color and flavor to stews, that's why it's so popular.

There is no accounting for taste.

It's also a popular garnish.
