That looks like a good site, thanks. I normally use Chambers for etymology (primarily the book, sometimes the site), but it's always good to have another reference - and one which adds little bits of additional info too!

Thanks for the reply. I know you're busy; please don't waste any time re-reading anything just to satisfy my random curiosity. I just liked the term, with its obvious connection to 'kin slaying' - my mind goes off in strange directions sometimes...

Technological advances require, in very broad terms, two things: knowledge and resources. So for a country to advance without its neighbours also doing so requires that country to have a monopoly on either the knowledge or the resources. Knowledge is almost impossible to keep within borders...

Whilst there may well have been a slight increase in sales, I don't think it would be possible to quantify them, as Earl Grey tea is produced by so many different companies in many different countries. It's the second most popular tea in the UK, accounting for a bit less than a fifth of all tea...

Not sure if I'm really allowed to vote, not being a resident, but there was nothing stopping me, so I've done so. Having looked at all of them, it came down to either yours (C) or another one (E) and you'll glad to know I think yours is, just, better, so that's the one I put as my first choice...
