Weird...

Okay, let me see if I understand: the green color disappears after the
blurb printed at start up goes away, right?  That is, while the blurb
is displayed, the mode line is green, but if you wait 2 minutes, the
*scratch* buffer clears, and _then_ the mode line becomes
black-on-white (or whatever the default colors are), yes?

If the above is true, does it also happen if you press a key during
the 2-min sit-for?

What happens if you set inhibit-startup-message to t, so that the
startup blurb is not displayed at all?
