It's all a plot to make M&Ms indistinguishable from Smarties, I say. Next thing you know, they'll add purple and pink. Then they'll squish 'em (chad's theory is they sit on them before packaging ... figures.) Then they'll triple the thickness of the coating so they don't taste like cheap milk chocolate anymore -- they taste like sugar-coated cheap chocolate. It's unadulterated evil, I say! Rebel against it! Demand tan M&Ms and demand them NOW! - -- Lori, manning the barricades in defense of all-American chocolatey goodness.

(I'm so happy I got a chance to see them when they were in Baltimore the week after the local Fruvous shows. They put on such a great show. I'm still not sure about the guy from China/Mongolia, though. He was really cool, but I don't know about throat singers. That was just weird.
