I am amazed at the color names introduced each school year. Crayola began with eight colors in 1903 and is up to 120 as of 2010 and growing annually with new colors at a rate of 2.56. I think they will have to create bigger boxes down the line. Could somebody please tell me why Beaver is now a color? Their snazzy names include Almond, Canary, Fern, Pink Flamingo, Antique Brass, Caribbean Green, Fuzzy Wuzzy Brown, Purple Heart, Banana Mania, Cotton Candy, Manatee, Shadow, Blush,Mountain Meadow, Sunset Orange, Blue Bell, Desert Sand, Outer Space, Torch Red, Pink Sherbet, Eggplant, Piggy Pink, and Vivid Violet. Inch Worm was introduced in 2004, still scratching my head over that one. Why is cadet blue not really blue?
