Yeah, and I wonder when this tradition came into play.  I had always
used Red=Left and Green=Right to identify tracks, and wired things
with Red=Left since that's how the running lights on a boat are
displayed.  I was caught by surprise years ago when manufacturers
started color coding their jacks to Red=Right!  Of course, the red
bouys are kept to your right when you're coming into port...
