  Smack. Sorry, you are absolutely correct.  Green goes with black, Red with 
  yellow. (I always get them confused simply because I think green goes better
  with red <GRIN>)

Or maybe you get them confused just because it really is confusing.  In quad
wire, red is a ring color and green is a tip color.  But in multi-pair, it's
reversed:  Red is a tip color, and green is a ring color.

For further confusion, consider that in quad wire, yellow is sometimes used
for ground but black and green never are.  In ac power wiring, black is hot
and green is ground, while white is tied to green at the main box.  In
automotive wiring, black is ground and red is hot.

And if you go to Europe, be prepared for brown, blue and orange phone wires.
