Just shows you what you don't know. I deleted that part of Mike's 
rules because I didn't think ColorSettings had an effect on what I 
thought was a simple conversion from Grayscale to RGB. I 
guess it obviously converts it to your working space profile, which 
in my case is ColorMatchRGB. And my GreySpace is "Gray 
Gamma 1.8".

I know that most people use either Bruce or Adobe98 as their 
working space. I just always thought I'd do better with 
ColorMatch, since it seemed to be better suited to my monitor.

Wonder why Apple chose 1.8 instead of 2.2? (Maybe just 
because they COULD choose something to be different from 
Windows). Why can't we all just be the same....?
