Eye-bruising red or eye-burning red?

Apparently, this isn't the most beautiful colour to read. I like to think that the extra effort makes you value the content more (effort justification). But maybe it's just a pain to read.
Red is obviously the best colour. It's also the only nice one not already pinched by someone else. (I'd settle for green, but tiger-beats-human.)
So: is there a shade of red that's definitely not pink that you would find easier to read, but also doesn't look like I'm about to explode with rage? Let me know. (Please)
Or persuade me there's another colour almost as nice as red.
Or don't, and read this as is. :-)

Hmm. HMMM.

It's fine. Just don't disgrace the orange. People have come to expect a certain standard of erudition and dignity from this orange. They associate it with refinement, with sophistication, with class-WHO IS LAUGHING?

This is the shade in which my brain sees Correspondence. If you want the heady power to set books alight with more than six characters, then this is the color for you.

The Failbetter office is a constant battle of red vs blue these days. (Not really. Our only battle is trying to convince our building to let us have an office dog, and we're on the same side.)

Shame on me, didn't notice your post was in a gradient. I liked the shade in "persuade me"

I like this one. It does not hurt and it does not annoy ... so probably not best if you want to send hurtful annoying messages. ;-)
