			<description><![CDATA[Take that "ug;y" color, swirl in some light gray and brown, make a military uniform, put it on one of our wonderful military men, and you have a sexy, hunk to look at! There is something about that camoflauge that makes them all look like Mr. America!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I had to chuckle when I saw this article. About 10 years ago, we bought a house and the master bedroom was painted this greenish shade. My immediate thought was that the paint was the first thing that had to go! But, ten years later, the room is still the color I refer to as "Army Pants Green". It is very neutral, and combines well with many colors. The dark color is soothing in the cold weather, and its green-ness is nice in warmer months.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If we didn't have such shades, we wouldn't appreciate pinks. Reminds me of an art teacher who told us to concentrate on the dark shapes, in for example a drawing of a hedgerow, to bring out the shapes of grass, flowers etc. There is room for a wide spectrum of colours in quilt projects;]]></description>
