ohmygosh wikipedia cracks me up. Who would seriously spend their time putting together a "shades of grey" demonstration?
Here's another useful tidbit from wiki's Gray entry:
Greys are seen commonly in nature and fashion.
Now I know, but what is that crazy color I keep seeing in all that architecture?!
Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
Dig your own grave, and save!

That's what I thought, too, but apparently we're foiled again...at least according to firefox.
I think it's the same as gray and grey. I prefer the latter because of the air of snobbish elitism (think Earl Grey and such).
SHW has just piped in with her two cents. Grey, to her, has a green tinge. Gray is just pure gray with no color taint. I think she's been eating too much soylent green, to tell you the truth.

Its soylent grey now.
I think Grey is a name, and gray is a color.

Its supposed to be grey on gray, not purple on gay.

"The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."
"They talk about the economy this year. Hey, my hairline is in recession, my waistline is in inflation. Altogether, I'm in a depression."
"I like to bike. I could beat Lance Armstrong, only because he couldn't pass me if he was behind me."
isn't "grey" more of a UK vibe to the American "gray," a la "cheque" instead of "check" or "theatre" instead of "theater" or "willy" instead of "penis?"

I have always thought the colour is grey over there and the color gray here.

That's what I always thought too, and wikipedia backs us up. It makes sense that I would use grey instead of gray, actually, given the Canadian/Boston influences on my English (was it Babs who said I have a slight Boston accent?).

I always thought that cheque was spanish for check.

And so my preference is due to the...er...okie influence?
And that totally does NOT sound like something babs would say, btw. Not a sober babs, anyway. Babs has never even been to Boston.

Now that's just intentional and gratuitous. Please refrain from hanging curve balls for me. I have been spending a lot of time at the batting cages lately and am liable to knock one out with more gusto than you would like.
