Or, come to think of it, Skips's resistor's fifth color band could be
the ever more seldom seen, "Flammability Factor Rating" or "FFR". In
his case, yellow means "Caution, this thing might burst into flames
someday". Green means: "Safe. This resistor won't burst into flames but
will smoke a lot", and red means: "Danger! this resistor's gonna blow up
real good just after you've installed it in the least accessible corner
of your boatanchor."
Of course, I could be wrong.
