17 October 2015--Attentive Friends will recall that Marc Bonnelly
and I visited a brewpub called Aux Fous Brassant in Rivière-du-Loup a short while back. "Fous Brassant" means "brewing fools", but Marc posited that the name was a play on "fou de Bassan", the French name for the sea bird known in English as gannet (Morus bassanus), common across the arc of the North Atlantic, especially concentrated in the British Isles. "Fou de Bassan" means "fool of Bass Rock". And here is Bass Rock as seen from the town of North Berwick, east of Edinburgh on the Firth of Forth. On an overcast day, a ray of sunlight on the rock makes it glow white with the birds and their guano.
