I think mine are blue. I've never been too good with that whole navy-blue and black thing. Let me do what I normally do when I'm in doubt .....

.....my wife says they are navy blue and gold.

(She says that women can tell the difference better than men.)

I bet no one else can tell the difference as you are breezing past them in a terminal.

In any case, I bought some black and gold ones online so mine are NOT navy. No one has noticed/complained.

I am going to wear my existing ep's to save the $15.

I would hope that would only be true if the delays were A RESULT of the strike. Seeing as how that isn't the case, I would think that NWA/DAL is due for some serious discounts.

Believe me, I will not pay $15 for those things. That's nuts. I'd sooner pay for a newspaper, while on a trip.

Since you didn't specify what company, I'll take that deal.

Here is your share of stock in Eastern Airlines, where are my epaulettes?

You're right, I forgot to specify. That was one share of Berkshire Hathaway.
