    I would just use #888888 anyway, but which way is it spelled, out of interest?

      I wanted to answer “grey”, full of confidence. Then I decided to look it up to be sure and found out that it’s “gray”.

      The test was to spot mistakes in a simple html file. So I couldn’t substitute anything. And my favourite gray color is #666.

      GrAy for Americans and grEy for Europeans. I used to basically flip a coin but I read that mnemonic once and have never forgotten since.

        probably the easiest way to spot someone that’s spent a decent amount of time messing with HTTP/1.x headers.
