The original official Maine colors (no, I will not be forced to call the place "UMaine", which is entirely too "cutesy" for my tastes and my history with the university!) were a dark navy blue and the light powder (a/k/a Columbia) blue. Only recently was the latter changed to this nearly North Carolina Tarheel teal ... wonder if anyone bothered to ask? We've always been Substance at the University of Maine -- Style over Substance doesn't belong in Orono. Okay, friends, that's my <rant> for the day! Thanks :-)
