My friend Leif (captainpinhole@yahoo.ca) in Winnipeg writes:
"Cyan: a color between blue and green in modern
times, but a deep blue color in older days.
Cyanide: a poison, a salt of the cyano group
"Carbon triple bonded to a Nitrogen" Prussic acid was
HCN. Very poisonous. Dickens used it to kill off
Oliver Twist's father in the novel. Other cyanides are
used to do other things, like make pictures.
Potassium ferricyanide: don't eat it.
Cyano types: a poisoned deep blue photograph.

Blue poison pictures."

Just though others may enjoy this.
