OKAY, OKAY, *ENOUGH*!!!

Thanks to all who responded to my question on kryptonite taxonomy.
There's no need to deluge me with more mail.

The final consensus:

	green		kills Kryptonians (when they're not under a
			red sun)
	
	red		weird, unpredictable effects

	gold		permanent loss of super powers

	white		kills plants (Kryptonian and non-Kryptonian)

	blue		no effect on Kryptonians, but was the Bizarro
			equivalent of green; one respondent thought
			that Superman himself had synthesized blue
			kryptonite
	
	jewel		a fake kryptonite manufactured by Lex Luthor;
			a hoax: no effect at all.

Once again, thanks to all who took the time to send mail; you can stop now.
