Tara, et al.

 

Either Mary Ann Moss or Mike K might have named it.  I never heard of one -
it was always "Hey, that thing over there is splashing."  Followed by:
"What thing?"  Followed by pointing and explaining.  

 

BC is fine in the interim. .hey. Interim Vent!

My apologies to those who enjoy giving facetous names to thermal features.
However.  Some of the jokes are funny, but this one is a *huge* stretch and
I'm not ready to adopt a name that's based on tourists' misinterpretation of
"Bijou" as "Bayou."  I was actually hoping that someone had given the vent a
SERIOUS name.
 
As much as I don't really want promote my own designation, I will continue
to call it "B-C Vent" for lack of anything better.
