Hello again Erin,

We have finally figured out what was causing the gene you mention to 
display incorrectly, and we have corrected it.  As you know, dark blue 
entries correspond to:

Dark blue -- transcript has been reviewed or validated by either the 
RefSeq, SwissProt or CCDS staff

The problem was that transcripts that were included in this set because 
they were validated by CCDS were left out of the group that received 
dark blue coloring.  We have corrected this in the current version, and 
have amended the process so that it will not happen in future updates of 
UCSC Genes.

Thank you for your patience and for pointing out the error.  We 
apologize for the inconvenience.
