I apologize if I've lost track of this conversation. However, there was definitely an argument about whether producers selected for color.

Peter - We're going to have to agree to disagree on this topic.
I have worked with and toured queen and package producers in just about every US state. One of the first I saw was in the south. They prided themselves on showing off by pinching any queen that did not match their exact color preference. I remember a colleague from a prestigious university stating that he 'begged' them for their rejects.
I've seen producers who bragged on their light or golden Italians or the color of their carnies. I once got a group of reddish queens from a producer who two years later wondered if I still had any red queens - his customers loved them
