For once I'd like for the ominous sounding color label to not be red or black. Let other colors like Mauve or Taupe have its time in the spotlight. I'm sure plenty of people would be afraid of a Mauve Death or a Flaxen alert or an Amaranth level protocol, or an Aegean mission code
A Taupe Directive is just nap time.
