Hey I've got a riddle:

What's black-and-white, has 144 legs, and sweats the small stuff?

Since this is an experiment, I suggest we not be so rigid as to dictate style of shirt or color of shoes.  I know in the South Royalton Town Band ( and you all have similar experiences, I am sure), the instruction is "white on top, black on bottom" and nothing more is said.  We all seem to show up using those guidelines and our own discretion and it looks just fine.  I suggest we not try to dictate a uniform, just a color guideline and then assume we are all adults and go from there. (i.e. I think a white polo shirt would fit the requirements)
