Fuchsia or Magenta?

In Dotland, the leaves don't change color in the fall but Silver's hair does. She unveiled the new color but hasn't decided on a name yet. Fuchsia or Magenta? Any suggestions?

In other news, the Peasants are restless. Their request for an increase in alms was denied. Why? There's fairly wide agreement that peasants are working harder than ever. Even the Board of No Appeal recognized that Times Have Changed, however, still no more alms. Duke Phfffr is already in trouble over questions of Duchy assets. Has the Duke been playing the Old Shell Game with the alms? Actually we thought the Black Dot Queen had patented the Old Shell Game. Possibly the only solution is to insist that both of them keep their hands above the table and their sleeves rolled up at all times.

Yes, The "Bored of Appeal",were just that,and said NO! to the peasants in their quest for an increase of alms. Their main reason was "Just because there is more work, doesn't mean you get a raise!" All of the peasants (and some wonderful librarians) that were present put up a hue and cry to no avail. Maybe if they did less work????
