»Red is the colour of love.

The New York Times always run interesting obituaries. When former University of California president
Clark Kerr died, this romantic anecdote appeared in the last column of the obit.:

In 1934, while at a student congress, he met Catherine Spaulding. She passed him a note: ``Are You a Communist?'' He replied: ``No.'' She wrote back: ``I'm not either.'' They were married nine months later on Christmas Day.
