To wear green or orange on St. Patrick's Day?

This is just going to be a quick note today.  I have had these four leaf clover's with the Tanner possessions and I thought they belonged to them, until I talked to my mom today.  I turns out they were John McMillan Hayes' which would make more sense.  These are actual dried four leaf clovers that he owned and are now in my possession.  How cool is that?  Especially since today is St. Patrick's Day.

Also, to clear up any confusion.  The Hayes' family were Protestant Irish which orange is their symbol.  According to Wikipedia and yahoo.com the Protestant's wear orange and the Catholic's wear green. The flag of Ireland is a strip of orange to signify the Protestants and a strip of green to signify the Catholic's and a strip of white in the middle signifying the hope for peace between the two.

Personally, just because it's fun and seen more as a generic Irish color, I wear green on St. Patrick's day.
