So...clearly colored text is the future of email. ;-)

Of course, it's not clear (1) that colored text is politically correct.

And differently enpigmented isn't terribly accurate since we're not dealing
with actual pigments.  And enpigmented might be offensive to pygmies (2) or
pigs or mints or wom*n.

Perhaps differently enpixeled? (3)

(1) Colored text is not clear.  I slay me. ;-)

(2) Pygmy may be spelled Pigmy or Pygmy.  In the Office dictionary Pigmy
points to Pygmy which points to Negrillo and Negrito neither of which are in
the Office dictionary.  See <http://www.bartleby.com/65/py/Pygmy.html> for a
brief description of the differences...

(3) Of course, technically empixeled might be better since an en is half of
an em.  But what's the point (4) of arguing?

(4) At 4 in the morning, when you're as deep into sleep deprivation as I
