I've been researching hte green pen myth. I started a thread about it on RAHE
http://www.google.com/groups?selm=q_mEc.1033%24%25_6.938%40attbi_s01&output=gplain
it appears to have started in the late 80's, and first appears on Usenet in 1990 -- and may hav been based on a practical joke posted to an audio discussion group on the Net.
And if you want to read some truly fucking sad examples of audiophile delusion, use 'green pen' as Subject search term in google groups.

Did Dick Pierce ever reply? I'm sure he could tear these dopes a few new ones without much effort.
