Please could anybody who has actually seen a blue LED write in and talk 
a bit about its colour? There was one message which seemed to imply they
looked a little washed out. Is this in fact so?

Also does anybody out there know anything about the possibility of building
a LED in ultraviolet? I know about IR LED's, but a UV LED would be useful!
