This question simply proves that you aren't.  This thread has had several people
mention that the problem isn't that you're refusing to admit the mistake.  The problem
is that you refuse to back out of it and switch back to the old colors.  "Cementing
the new colors for all time" is NOT fixing anything.

And another widespread question of when are you going to tell us the REAL reasons for
the switch (focus groups ain't it, so don't cop out with that)?

Boy... you folks just don't get it do you.

Changing colours is a business decision!!!   The fact that TLG decided to
keep the new colours simply can not possibly indicate that they did not listen
to AFOLs... only that they believe the new colours to be a better business
decision.

As for telling you the REAL reason... what possible business sense could
that make?!?!   And what business is it of yours anyways.  They are a
company... they have responsibilities to those who own the company to decide
what is best for their company.

I personally would like to have the old colours back, selfishly because
I have many thousands of old light gray.  But in the end TLG thinks the new
colours to be a good business decision so that is what they should make.
Whether it turns out to be wise or not only time will tell.
