The more I read it, the more "plankton" as an audio term annoys me. It's just out of left field.
Given how some frAudiophiles can be ridiculously OCD, perhaps it should be referred to as "Wankton"? "Yeah...That's the ticket! I was 'resolving small details' in my Spanctum Wanktorum."

On Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia (Canada), an island almost more Scottish than Scotland (I grew up there and will always and forever identify as a Cape Bretoner above and beyond any other identifier), there's a distillery just outside my home village called "Glenora Distillery" and they make an award-winning single-malt scotch called "Glen Breton Rare Canadian Single Malt Whisky". The Scotch Whisky Association got all up in arms over the Glen Breton name a few years ago and they raised a legal stink over it that went up to the Canadian Supreme Court. The Association's position was that only Scotch distillers can use the "Glen" prefix in their product name. Nope.

Easy solution for this problem: Scotland declares independence from the UK (they want it anyway, after Brexit) and joins Canada, combining with Nova Scotia: Scotland, Old & New :grin:

I vote "aye!" on behalf of me and my clan!

My wife and I spent 2 weeks in Scotland just before the start of the pandemic. We've fallen in love with the Isle of Skye and we'll be going back to spend more time there and in the western Isles. It's a landscape photographer's dream.

The Home of the tallest true giant, Angus MacAskill. 7' 9" and 510lbs. There is a small museum dedicated to him on the island. I want to go there one day.
