To split  off from the actual topic, I recently had a tv show on in the   
background whilst working, and caught a few details about the dye  used  
to produce the tekhelet blue as prescribed in the Torah &  described in  
the Talmud.  The animal used for it, the hillazon,  is now a mystery,  
but the cuttlefish has become a popular  suspect.  They showed dye made  
from the cuttlefish and various  other suspects, which was quite  
beautiful (lavender/sky  blue).



Thanks--that must be what I was thinking of.
