Strange KML behaviors

Greetings!

Given this script snippet:

gmt gmt2kml yellow.dat -Gfyellow -Fs >
/awips/hydroapps/www/images/yellow.kml

gmt gmt2kml orange.dat -Gforange
-Fs > /awips/hydroapps/www/images/orange.kml

gmt gmt2kml yellow.dat -Gfyellow -Fs
-K > /awips/hydroapps/www/images/yelloworange.kml

gmt gmt2kml orange.dat -Gforange -Fs
-O >> /awips/hydroapps/www/images/yelloworange.kml

which creates 3 KML files which are uploaded to the web server
(yellow.kml, orange.kml, and yelloworange.kml). You can view them
here:

https://maps.google.com/maps?source=embed&ie=UTF8&t=p&ll=38.993572,-83.649902&spn=10.241768,15.380859&z=6&q=http:%2F%2Fweather.gov%2Fohrfc%2FHAS%2Fimages%2Fyellow.kml&vpsrc=0&oi=map_misc&ct=api_logo

and replace "yellow" in the magnifying-glass box with "orange" or
"yelloworange". The only thing different in my commands to create
the yelloworange.kml file is the fact that I use -K and -O to
combine two commands into one file. What's puzzling is that the
yelloworange.kml file reveals all the points from both yellow and
orange (this is good!), but the markers aren't yellow for some and
orange for the others, but rather, they are all BLUE!! How does
THAT happen??
