They wash it regularly in different colors. But it is not washed out on my CRT at least.

check your preferences

Well, I don't see much color at all...What I see is white text on a light gray background.

Quite a poorly done site---it looks like they used the same basic stylesheet from their main page, but some things got mucked up in the translation.

I will report it to them---I hope you will also.
