2. Yup. Orange is my favorite color. Also "orange" rhymes with "health care".

Or something...

Oh, and I have a nice orange baseball cap that I can claim I bought just for health care awareness.

3. Orange is my favorite BUT

in the medical world I think orange plastic bags indicate contaminated material - not a good choice.

5. You might want to consider how people respond to colors -

This graph shows a study by age (more at the link by gender):

Blue outstrips everything . . .

7. Unfortunately, blue is the color of the enemy in this fight.

As in Blue Cross, Blue Shield, and their bought and paid for tools, the Blue Balled Cowards.

9. I must be one of the odd ones...

I used to like dark colors when I was younger.

Most of my stuff was black or brown or navy blue.

Now that I'm older I'm really partial to red. And purple. Or red and purple together, like in the poem :)

8. Plaid. Because it incorporates a lot of different colors, yet isn't just one.

Just trying to be fair here.
