   Thank you for your replies and your expert views.   
      
   As soon as I posed the question as to whether or not   
   QCD colour could double for gravitational colour, I   
   realised that I had been lazy in avoiding having two   
   separate types of colour sources.  I have since worked   
   on gravitation having a separate colour set and have   
   inserted that idea into my naive preon model. To my   
   surprise, it gave me a way of unifying the four forces   
   and I have written a report (7 pages) on this and   
   published it today on vixra:   
      
   http://vixra.org/abs/1709.0021.   
   "Hexark and Preon Model #8 and the Unification of   
   Forces: a Summary"   
      
   Even with my model #7 a few weeks ago, I could not   
   see how unification made sense. But now, in   
   new Model #8, I seem to have progressed to a   
   unification method that makes sense, at least   
   to me.
