> I remember reading somewhere that "in ancient Greece, women of ill repute
"distinguished" themselves by lightening their hair with saffron. At first,
their Roman conquerors assumed women with golden tresses were immoral.
Keener observation of this custom indicated that blondes did indeed have
more fun.

"Keener observation"  indeed.
