There is no end to the things I do not know.
There is probably no end to unknowable things.
Kerry didn't do what he needed to do.

HP sauce?
FYI
_http://www.wordiq.com/definition/HP_Sauce_
(http://www.wordiq.com/definition/HP_Sauce)
"Garton came to call the sauce HP because he had heard that a restaurant in
the _Houses of Parliament_
(http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Houses_of_Parliament) had begun serving
it. Garton sold the recipe and HP brand for the sum
of £150 and the settlement of some unpaid bills to Edwin Samson Moore. HP
Sauce became known as "Wilson's Gravy"".
Now, one wonders if Grice also implied Wilson's Gravy. (By the transitivity
of implicature -- what is implicated is implicated by what is implicated
--,
he should).
Cheers,
JL
