OzOne wrote in message Well said Thom. I believe that calling them "seas" is purely a vanity thing....the sailors like to think they've been to sea. They should just accept that they are lake sailors. What gave you the impression that we think we are anything but "lake sailors?" We never denied it; to the contrary we are proud of it. But the characteristics of the GLs are often more aptly described by the behavior of a sea than what one generally thinks of with the term *lake.* Many salty pilots find themselves in a world of hurt in the GLs after crossing the Atlantic and adopting a feeling of relative security, now that they are on just a bunch of big *lakes.* The survivors go back across the pond, tail between their legs, telling everyone in Europe and Asia about the malignant inland "seas" in the American East and Midwest.
