*wonders what the color will be?*

I hope they stay clear of the pink… That’s the last color we need. Next thing you know, woman will call it an excuse to coordinate their clothing with it.:surprised

That\'s pretty cool.  What\'s the deal with the different colors?  Are they still deciding on one?

They haven’t decided on the color yet. These are just somebody’s interpretation of what might be possible.

Maybe they\'re planning to change all bills to be a different color.. Like Canadian money.  (And everywhere else with multi-colored bills)
