Sharron,
You will be happy, then, to see more SDBs on the CIS Silent Auction list. I
don't recall if DOT COM was on the list but it is a newer SDB that has
similar colouring. I was disappointed in its colour contrast last year but
this year the colour was very close to TU TU TURQUOISE. And if you prefer
closed standards over the slightly open ones of TU TU TURQUOISE, this is a
MUST HAVE.
