I saw the rest of your comments on MetaPost, and while I have used it as a stand-alone tool to draw a logo, I have not used it much inside of TeX. Please let me know if the errors I am seeing are possibly due to that. I tried to rgrep the context portion of the texmf tree for green, but did not find anything like m-green, s-green, or p-green. I assume these have to do with the output formats: presentation or printed??
