Speaking of typos and "Shades of Grey," there was some discussion of the 2 spellings of "grey/gray" in the first "Shades of Grey" post of the day. (This is the 3d.) I said I meant to do that:
"Gray" is the long-term spelling on this blog and the normal spelling used by Americans.You know how you know "gray" is the right spelling for Americans? You look at your Crayolas!
"Grey" is the title of the book, the name of the character -- Christian Grey -- the British spelling, and the spelling used by Americans who have been over influenced by the British and that damned book.
