I'm a 6'1" 265# engineer sort a guy!  I had to google ecru myself.... :)

No, I'm not a "closet" interior designer.  I don't even like it when my wife moves a piece of furniture!

If we are gonna get all technical, there are only three true colors: red, yellow and blue.  White and black are shades.  Using varying combinations of the above you can get "bastardized" colors in various shades or tints with the addition of white and black. 

So....  you only really need three to five in your "crayon box" and you can get to all the others.

BTW ecru is used a bunch in crossword puzzles.  Think of a very light tan.

Just an aside, there are actual jobs where people coordinate the on-screen color to the actual output color in digital printing.  The red you see on screen may not be the red that the printer puts out.  People get paid more than you think they should to keep output consistent with display.  Yeah, I'm a bit of a nerd...

UUUUUUUHHHHHHH----What the heck has the number of colors got to do with new member check-in???  ???
HI, I am new here, but not really new to guns. My DW for a long time did not want guns in the house, so for quite a few years I did not own any. I inherited several rifles and pistols after both my father and step-father passed away, so she finally gave in and I have since bought several pistols , and I even gotten her to the range a few times.
She did request that I get a gun safe because our five year old grandson lives with us, tuff sale(hehe)I worked in retail, and yes ecru is a color to women, but it looks like light beige to me!  ;D ;D

Never mind "Swine flu" it's a scam, the REAL pandemic, here any way, is thread drift.
It may be a short attention span thing.   ;D

Welcome Big E. Glad to have a fellow Texan and Arlington resident join. This is a fantastic sight. It takes a little while to catch on so stick with us.
