It may amuse you to know, I am told by my lawyer partners that a really astonishing proportion of crazy people who write to you really do use green ink. It seems astonishing to imagine that there really could be a correlation between sanity and favoured ink colour.
I should be astonished, but I’m not. A statistically unlikely proportion of the autistics I know have a strong preference for the color purple (and I don’t think I know any NTs with that preference), so the idea that color preference is a function of neurotype doesn’t seem too odd to me.
Hah! I had to look up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_ink
I like my comment—and think it shows my sense of humour. If you were among those who were not amused, then sorry! ;-)
I do usually keep off karma-related sub-threads. They are mostly noise to me. However, here, I was asked a direct question.
Anyway, if people here who disagree with me can’t be bothered to argue, I don’t see how will they ever learn anything ;-) <--

Yikes, did anyone else notice the amount of green on this site?
I was just noticing that myself. Withdrawing my request to change the color scheme.
We all write in black, though. :P
Mostly.

As an Asperger’s person who loves purple (and dislikes green) this thread is quite amusing.
This is the first place I have ever seen anyone say that green ink writers use actual green ink. Added to RW!
