In Russia there is no word for 'blue'. They have words for what we in the West see as
'light blue' and 'dark blue' but in Russia these are seen as two distinct colours,not two
different shades of the same colour.

The best two teams, statistically, in Legends of the Hidden Temple are the Green Monkeys and the Silver Snakes. The worst team is the Purple Parrots.

You can tell the differences in season based upon Kirk Fogg's entry. In season 1, he walks in, and is wearing shorts. In season 2, he drop straight down and is wearing jeans. In season 3, he swings into view.
