As usual, early $poilers please e-mail me... Woodworm (Woodworm) New member Username: Woodworm Post Number: 1251 Registered: 3-2006 Posted on Wednesday, April 16, 2008 - 7:08 pm:        Lights? Paints? Roadsigns? Logos? Blue = pornographic? Blue = miserable? Green = environmentally sound? Green = naive? Would this puzzle work in other languages? Did blue become the new green in 2008? 2000-2007? Before 2000?

Are these actual colors, or metaphors as suggested above by Woodworm? Does one color change into another, or are they on different items?

The difference between signage on main roads and motorways? Is the country relevant? Toll roads relevant?

The difference between signage on main roads and motorways? Is the country relevant? Toll roads relevant? Yes to all. ********* SPOILER ********* In Italy (among other countries) main roads and motorways are indicated, respectively, by blue or green signs. In France (and elsewhere) it is the other way around. When passing the Italy-France border, blue becomes the new green.
