Ah hah. OK. I agree with David about the purple color in the sense
that it isn't a good once. The contrast between the purple and the
gray is very low, and I think that is probably why David doesn't like
the proposed color. If the purple were something more like #800080 (or
something with more red and hue and less blue and white) it will be
better.
