Are you sure it's 78/78/78? That gives me a contrast of 8.32:1 on the site you linked. To get 7:1, I see down to #595959 or (89, 89, 89).

Fixes #138 (I think). To choose the colour I used https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ to pick the lightest colour that still passes the accessibility checks (which seem to be a contrast ratio of at least 7:1)
