    Subtle: delicate; fine; not obvious; skillful.

    Beats me...I've looked at the etymology of both words and all I can come up with is "Huh, why...they are so similar"

    Grey vs Gray....

    Grey carries a mystique that Gray simply lacks...it is a rare spelling as the mini is a rare car.

    Ahhhhh.........
    Is this coming from a guy who only sees grey / gray through his lens? Or is that only 18% grey ( if I have that correct)? :)

    The GreyLens speaks across galaxies to all Arisian Knights. The Knights see all colors but wear only grey (never gray). They fight the rapacious, intractable Eddorians at every opportunity. When on planet earth, the Galactic Patrol prefers the unassuming yet powerful form of transportation afforded by the mini. Alec Issigonis, a result of the middle stages of their breeding program, developed the mini to meet their needs during the last half of the XX century. The MINI was revived to support them in the XXI century. :crazy::crazy::crazy:
