If printing CMYK, one could mix a black that would have a lot of life in

Keith, do you call your prints quadgums? Quad Color Gums?   Keith-O-Graphs?

As officially appointed grammar police, I suggest a rider on punctuation: Calling it tricolor-gum print, or tri-color gum print could have different implications, -- if you want it to. But this talk of "rules" is, as we used to say on the bus, "creeping me out." One of the reasons to love "alt" is because those tiresome "rules" do not apply. Is it really necessary to devise new ones?
