Is the neighborhood “perfect” because it’s homogeneous (all crayons), diverse (all colors) or tolerent of both homogeneneity and diversity (perhaps the ideal environment)?
Did you ever see Evita? Reminds me of the rainbow tour. (At least if my memory serves me, I think it was called that. Dang. This old age stuff is driving me crazy.)

I think comments will flow along the lines of celebrating diversity today as you suggest. Ironically I saw the rainbow as unity not diversity.
