"On chipco chips any light will have a say in its color in time."

I know that & agree. I do not however think that is the case with the chip I mailed to Greg.

"Chipco has pointed this out many times as they did not get their inks from the same place."

And if a new run of a chip, with the same artwork, has a different color than a previous run, then it's a new variety for those that collect them. In this case, both Greg & myself believe that the 4th chip is indeed a new variety. Either way, it won't make any difference in my day one way or the other, as I don't collect varieties.
