SC - Summertime Cerulean Blue Sauce

[grasse at mscd.edu]

Kind Katharina stated,

In Austria Blaubeere is Schwarzbeere and everybody would look at you with a
strange little smile if you say Blaubeere.

I will admit to being used to those strange little smiles ;-)  Thank you 
for enlightening me about the Austrian language preference.  It explains my 
confusion.  
And I thank you very much for the Chemistry lesson:  BTW chemical  
Blausäure is HCN   prussic or hydrocyanic acid.  I was trying to think of 
cyanide, but my brain would not supply the term.  Could it have something 
to do with the type of blue (I freely admit I am no chemist, please 
enlighten me!)

And I apologize for not adding a "Welcome to the list" to my original post. 
 I very much enjoyed your introduction.  Makes me wish I could seriously 
consider another trip to Germany this Fall, this time with an extended 
visit to Vienna.  (I adore the New Years concerts... It was one of 2 
programs that Oma and I would both be able to watch and comment on even 
though she was in Berlin and I in Colorado.  I still watch them and imagine 
what she might say.)
