Yes, it does seem strange that the most popular Linux distro would
have the Ugliest, dreariest colors.

But, it also seemed strange that George W. Bush went 8 years without
taking speech lessons.

Or, that John McCain didn't get that "My friends" speech impediment to
disappear before he started a campaign.

Thanks for the Blubuntu tip, as it's never been Gnome that I hate, but
those putrid brown Ubuntu colors!
