Its not so much like wood, as like dirt. IMHO.

Not really. It is more reddish, but I don't get the urge to eat it. :)

This presumes the answer to #2 is yes! :) So, I guess I shouldhave left this

Its brown. Honestly, I can barely tell the difference. I was upset for awhile
until at a club meeting where we thought it was odd that they used old brown in
the X-Pods. Of course they hadn't, we just couldn't tell the difference.
I think the main reason for changing brown is for representing brown-colored
people. (I was going to say African-American, but then why would they have to
American at all?) The old brown was plainly too dark for printing, and the new
brown gives a nice contrast to the black ink printed on it. At least in the
pictures--I haven't seen a new brown face in person, yet.
