There is no end to the things I do not know.
 
There is probably no end to unknowable things.

HP   sauce?
FYI

(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,
