Some people are digging deep, but who knows...
"one particularly gripping theory ... that Walt's book was not, in fact, a gift from Gale Boetticher, but was one from his old girlfriend, Gretchen.
...Gretchen's maiden name is Black... fans know that Walter and Gretchen were two of the three founders of the company Gray Matter ? a name that could likely be the result of combining White (Walter) with Black (Gretchen). But of course, there could be another mentality behind this name, which also serves as a sort of "hint" toward Gretchen's nomenclature. After she and Walter broke up and Walter abandoned the project, Gretchen married the third member of Gray Matter: Elliott Schwartz, taking his last name. Schwartz, for those who do not know, is German for "black." So, while this wouldn't hold up in any real world court, it could provide some kind of a clue in a universe controlled by writers."
