I've already noticed a few applications/inits/cdevs that have a cicn ready and
waiting.  How did I notice?  Because after I unstuffed them, the color icons
appeared on my desktop... once.  After I restarted my Mac, they reverted to the
black-and-white icons.  Does anybody know why this occurs?  I'm running System
6.0.4 on a Mac II.
