I've checked on two different monitors now, a desktop and a laptop, and it is definitely brown on both

Given the choice between green and brown, I went for green. However, I think that khaki is definitely the best description for it.

re: bowls
I say they're grey, she says their blue, we never agreed. I am currently 100 miles away froms aid bowls however, and mine definitely *are* blue.

Well, to me it just looks dark. But then, I actually am colour blind, and of absolutely no use to this conversation whatsoever.

It is *definitely* green at home and *definitely* brown in the department.
I think it's definitely monitor affected.

"We must not allow the axis of brown to overwhelm the mighty green. Any khaki who do not side with the green are giving implicit support to the brown. Now is the thyme for action"

Well, I think it looks brown, but on the green side!

Not grown? That would put it right in line with thyme.

On my screen it's a milk-chocolate kind of brown, much too dark to be even considered a khaki, and nary a hint of green.
