So I will cover that along with other topics today. I knew that could be a risk when I mentioned the prairie town of Earl Grey in Saskatchewan. Naturally I interpreted this as a sign of an engaged conversation and I appreciated the input.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Up In Canada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!4v1632135858150!6m8!1m7!1s-xCJLCzCVrP1D1_SfBUrAw!2m2!1d50.93740482887801!2d-104.7111412032594!3f114.9680355381542!4f-3.7426273417534333!5f3.325193203789971\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, let&#8217;s talk about Earl Grey, the rural town and its namesake. To begin, there have been <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Earl_Grey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">seven men<\/a> with the hereditary title Earl Grey. In this context Earl referred to a Peerage of the United Kingdom. It doesn&#8217;t commemorate some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0460091\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dude named Earl<\/a> although that would have been much more entertaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Town and Football<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So I consulted the History of Earl Grey (the town). This came from the book &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/books\/about\/From_Buffalo_Grass_to_Wheat.html?id=9GdvAAAACAAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">From Buffalo Grass to Wheat: a History of Long Lake District<\/a>,&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;&#8230;this settlement began when a settler spent the winter of 1903-04 in a dugout in the side of the hill near where the old school stands today&#8230; When the village was incorporated in 1906, a C.P.R. [ed., Canadian Pacific Railroad] official suggested that it be called Earl Grey in honor of the Governor-General, Earl Grey.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This particular Earl Grey was also Sir <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Albert_Grey,_4th_Earl_Grey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Albert Henry George Grey<\/a>, 4th Earl Grey and more importantly for this story, Governor General of Canada between 1904 and 1911. &#8220;<em>He is probably best remembered as the donor of the Grey Cup, the trophy awarded to the champion team of the Canadian Football League<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One More<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d326516.5208716576!2d-116.82834998585021!3d50.256259221182916!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x537b00fa60c19d1b%3A0xb5638f72917d4c3a!2sEarl%20Grey%20Pass!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1632136519762!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canadian Geographical Names Data Base included one other Earl Grey, a mountain pass bearing the name in British Columbia. The Purcell Wilderness Conservancy Provincial Park explained the origin on its <a href=\"https:\/\/bcparks.ca\/explore\/parkpgs\/purcell\/earl_grey_trail_brochure.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">guide<\/a> to the Earl Grey Pass Trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;During a visit to British Columbia in 1908, Earl Grey, Canada\u2019s Governor General&#8230; crossed the Purcell Mountains on a trail that connected the East and West Kootenays. He traveled up Toby and down Hamill Creeks, over a 2,256m pass which was later named in his honor&#8230; The Purcell&#8217;s so impressed Earl Grey that he had a cabin built for his family&#8217;s vacation in 1909. The remains of the structure still stand on Toby Creek, one kilometer from the Eastern trailhead.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So two Canadian geographic features got the Earl Gray name. A bunch of roads and schools spread throughout the Provinces did too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Grey or Orange?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/mariella17144\/1446636358\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/1343\/1446636358_45b9292f4e_b.jpg\" alt=\"bergamotto.

I figured I should check that out since I was already examining geographic features named Earl Grey. The tea referred to UK Prime Minister <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/history\/past-prime-ministers\/charles-grey-2nd-earl-grey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey<\/a>. He was the <em>grandfather<\/em> of Albert Grey, the previously referenced Governor General of Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tea Time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;Lord Grey\u2019s most remarkable achievement was the Reform Act of 1832, which set in train a gradual process of electoral change, sowing the seeds of the system we recognise today&#8230; One of his other legacies is the blend of tea known as Earl Grey. He reputedly received a gift, probably a diplomatic present, of tea that was flavoured with bergamot oil. It became so popular that he asked British tea merchants to recreate it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About That Oil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bergamot oil came from the pressed peel of the Bergamot orange (<em>Citrus bergamia<\/em>). That&#8217;s an infrequently encountered sour citrus grown commercially in a small handful of places. The majority of those orange groves concentrated historically around the Calabria region of Italy, especially within the Province of Reggio Calabria (<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/MNnaZBPSsMsGzWuK6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">map<\/a>). Some recognize this as the &#8220;toe&#8221; of the Italian boot. According to the Consorzio del Bergamotto (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.consorziodituteladelbergamotto.it\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Consortium of Bergamot<\/a>),<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The bergamot is cultivated along the Ionian coast of the Province of Reggio Calabria, specifically between the towns of Villa San Giovanni and Gioiosa Jonica; &nbsp;an area of about 1,500 hectares produces 20,000 tonnes of fruit, which yield an average of 100,000 kg of essence.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoiding Confusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So remember,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Black tea infused with obscure citrus: 2nd Earl Grey<\/li><li>Canadian Football League championship: 4th Earl Grey<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to drop those distinctions into your next cocktail party conversation if you need to disperse a crowd.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 12MC audience anticipated my next move again.
