I, too, find that gray is flatter than grey, which has a slight
translucency to it. Isn't this much the same as personal notions about the
colors of the days of the week? (Tuesday is grey, for instance, while
Thursday is gray, but Wednesday is a rich teal and Friday wine red.)  I
wonder whether grey and gray preserve their special qualities in all fonts,
in caps as well as lower case, in longhand cursive, &c. Do a and e simply
have a different affect?
