I'm actually glad it didn't occur to me since the Two Ronnies used it first. I wouldn't want it to look like I was swiping their material. Thanks for listening. That’s a brilliant joke, Snard!

Recall that the story involved trying to merge a red star and blue star in hopes of creating a purple star. When I heard this line, it reminded me of a sketch on an old "Two Ronnies" show (a Brit comedy program which StarShipSofa listeners will hopefully recognize.) I am paraphrasing the sketch, but it goes something like this. One of the Ronnies is a news reader, and gives the following bulletin: "Two ships in the North Sea have collided; one was carrying blue paint, and the other was carrying red paint. No news yet on the condition of the ships, but the crew are reported to be marooned."
