AHHH! The mystery is now solved. FINALLY. Now I know. I've been spending a lot of time on this puzzle, and this morning I finally have an answer. Comma or apostrophe? Apostrophe or comma? The riddle it no longer a riddle. The enigma is no longer an enigma. It's an apostrophe.

Purple and green are such nice soft colors, and not gender specific (last I heard). I'm especially impressed with purple.
Say, Shirley. Can you keep a secret? I know it's difficult, but you know how people might start talking. My bedroom is two shades of purple (white ceiling). Very, very calming.
I promise not to tell -- people might start wondering how I know...
Purple may be calming, but I remember from a college psyche class that pink actually induces psychosis. They've done studies in mental institutions, and they've learned NOT to paint the padded cells pink...
We've just had our classrooms here at work remodelled, and the poor project manager actually made the mistake of asking our team of six trainers (including five females) to decide what color we wanted the room to be... The winner was sort of a light grey-blue shade -- picture a computer monitor with a white screen that's starting to fade out (like the one I'm looking at right now). It won primarily because it's called "Goddess" Blue!
Actually, isn't blue supposed to be calming, yellow, uplifting?
Personally, I think it probably depends on how you feel about the color. I had a friend in college that painted her room purple and pale lavender, even the blinds...she sat in there and smoked A LOT
