Intriguingly, although the North American version of Grey Poupon is made with Canadian mustard seeds, Maille brand has always dominated the Canadian shelf space for Dijon mustard.

Olive oil can be mixed with it for a lovely and tangy salad vinagrette. Great if you are eating green greens in your salad. Does Grey Poupon work well for that, also?

And it's "Pardon me, ..."

isn't it? It's all in the details, folks.

So there is a vague recollection of a Grey/gray debate over a Q in PTWWTBAM. I thought is got resurrected during a QoD on Grey/Gray's anatomy.

FNGD historian can do half.

Maybe.

I have used the distinction between Grey and Gray for the TV show, and the textbook respectively twice on FNGD.

The Hell Gate Bridge, on the other hand, has not made a reappearance.

I was reminded of this, and brought it up, as a result of LB's comment in his MoABHQ answer key.
