I'd like to see it in person and a test drive wouldn't be bad. I think it's better than some of the colors they use on the Ms.

As it is my favorite color, I do find it strangely neat-o.

Heard about VB a couple years ago, never seen it applied in such large amounts. Pretty cool!

A room painted in that, on all 6 surfaces.... how freaky would it be to be in a well and truly isolating void?

Not cool.

Took a tour of a coal mine in PA, & as part of it they cut the lights to show what it'd be like to be stuck down there. No light, no reference points etc.

Well now I want to see it in real life

Unsettling?
