     I'm merely saying that "Colour" is not "the same as an API class."
Nor do I think "Colour" and "Color" would be easily confused: Whether
one is Left- or Right-Pondian, one will read smoothly while the other
will jar, and neither is likely to be mistaken for the other.

     Let's harbour no groudges, oukay?
