Michael, On 10/13/2018 02:48 AM, you wrote to Alexander Koryagin: AK>> What is a green beach, what is a tarmac sea, and how can they meet?

Bad boy. :) Some Russian fellers take too much to heart and think that every written thing ought to be taken literally. I think there is some literary licence being taken by the author of that passage. When I first read it I thought that someone had discovered the Blues Brothers but, no. Then there seemed to be an oblique reference to the artwork style (coloured sequences) in the 'Wizard Of Oz' 1930s film. I think my latter idea is close.
