Bromine is much nicer. Yellow, red or brown, depending on concentration. It's much less deadly though.

Iodine vapour is a gorgeous violet, but isn't toxic at all. I think there's a negative correlation between deadlyness and aesthetic appeal.

A level chemistry.A whole section on the halogens. There's a rather lovely little experiment with a blob of liquid bromine in a sealed glass tube. Hold the tube and the heat from your hands cause the bromine to turn to vapour which fills the tube. Put it down again and it recondenses.

Really?! Deary me...I've seen my fair share of 'your' instead of 'you're' tattoos before, but that's something else.

You know why, or would reach the same conclusion.Green is 'brighter' at the upper end than any other colour to a viewer.
Red works but for film is hard to light up without bleeding or pinking,
blue ends up as cyan, purple is silly and B& etc.

It's a nasty irritantElemental iodine (I2) is poisonous if taken orally in larger amounts; 2–3 grams of it is a lethal dose for an adult human.
Iodine vapor is very irritating to the eye, to mucous membranes, and in the respiratory tract. Concentration of iodine in the air should not exceed 1 mg/m3 (eight-hour time-weighted average).

Sheeeeit... I don't need that in my life.I guess, if I'm wearing the right gear I should be fine, but that does all sound particularly nasty; almost like mustard gas.

It is. If you made the gas purple film viewers would laugh before the meatpuppet yelled the re-enforcing line, 'Poison gas!'.
And then Prince would sue you thinking it was a snide slap at his pathetic ego.

I think they did the same thing in Black Ops too...I dunno, I feel like in MW3, Europe got its arse kicked by Cobra Commander, or Dick Dastardly or some other wily villain.
