<P>>Scrooge's name in France is Picsou, as you know.<BR>>Sou: coin (an old currency, actually)<BR>>Pic: from "piquer" (to sting), here in the sense of "to nab"-- not that far<BR>>from Glomgold, eh?<BR><BR>Hey, thanks for this info! I am a big fan of the Picsou comics, but my French skills leave much to be desired, and I'd always wondered where the name Picsou came from.</P>
