So I'm wondering, is this a coincidence or did Rogue Valley Transportation District buy used buses from D.C.? -- John R., Ashland It's just a coincidence, John, according to RVTD officials. And, actually, RVTD had four different color schemes on their old buses. For instance, the natural gas buses are blue with white clouds. RVTD's new color scheme has teal, black, gold and blue. The blue represents the Rogue River and the black and gold represents the roads. The teal and gold also represent the hills and mountains. There are also some pine trees and white capped mountains thrown in for good measure. Send questions to "Since You Asked," Mail Tribune Newsroom, P.O.
