Yep, I knew I was doing something wrong all right, and that something
is not paying close attention to color.  I'd visited ATRPMS.net,
and the sea of blue on most of the Myth RPMs kind of lulled me.  So
there you have it, failure to pay proper attention and egregious posting
with no aforethought.  Guilty as charged.  

Guess it's too late to claim I'm using a greyscale monitor, eh?

Oh well, maybe this will save someone else from looking the fool also.
I'm happy to sacrifice myself for the common good ...
