Yes there are a number of interesting points in that thread. However, I don't believe Gandalf was The Grey for any other reason than Olorin was clad in Grey. Is this because he was of the people of Este?. Olorin lived in Lorien, and following the teaching of those Vala which lived there, he became the Istari he was meant to. Was the grey a form of religious robes. If our world was totally religious, would we wear a form of dress, much like the followers of Islam or Buddha do. In this way you could be "Of the People of Britain" yet of a different faith. Was Curumo "Of the People of Aule" yet the follower of another order, therefore White?
