someone swiped my green marker! Outrage

Purple is a "safe" color isn't it?

Unless you are color-blind and can't see it on the board (interthreadual citation).

If you're trying to write realistic literary fiction, probably not.

I just thought I should mention that the green marker in my computer bag is NOT, repeat, NOT a dry-erase marker.

It's just a regular old Marks-a-Lot Marker for paper, not whiteboards.

Just in case anyone saw it in there, and wondered....

Uh-oh.  I hope you're not like me, and will not mistake your permanent marker for a dry-erase marker and writing all over the whiteboard.  It was a mistake I made only once. 

[mamselle]

I did, once, also, but there's an easy workaround, as it turns out; you just write over the erroneous marker writings with proper type of marker and then erase both, which takes care of the issue.
