Mind: I'm not a parsimonius money-grabber, i.e. an evangelist, in Grice's code (WoW, R. E.) but hey,
Grice did mention "10 comms"
-- cited by Chapman -- "on the overleaf of a statement of account of the Berkeley bank".
Oddly, when M. J. Palacios -- and she managed to publish the thing -- invited me to lecture on Grice -- in, of all places, Salta, I entitled my thing, "Conversational Decalogue".
For I had found that Grice's things are 9 -- in WoW, plus the one in WoW, xvii -- which he suggests 'be added to the original layout' gives 10.
There's magic in numbers!
