   Say the gravitational force was a weak colour force.  Like QED colour,   
   but much weaker.  QED colour could even be a braided version of   
   gravitational colour and hence be a stronger force cf rope is stronger   
   than cotton.  Gravitational colour as an unbraided version of QCD colour   
   might therefore be more plentiful than QCD colour and so maybe there is   
   'more' gravitational colour than QED colour in the gluon, and even the   
   QED particles could have gravitational colour.   
      
   Could a single gluon exchange produce both a gravitational-colour pull   
   and a QCD-colour pull simulataneously?  And could a photon with   
   gravitational colour but no net QCD colour simultaneously QED-repel two   
   electons and gravitationally attract them?   
      
   Can a single, massless gluon escape its neighbouring quarks to exert a   
   gravitational-colour pull further afield?   
      
   Is it absolutely essential for a graviton to have spin 2, or is that   
   only when mass is being used as a charge, rather than a colour charge?
