Sorry, I thought you said he spelled the word incorrectly. You did
perk my curiosity, what does SFB mean?




My comment was about his third-rate high school

I'm sure a cut and paster like you can find out what S.F.B. means.


What the hell does the San Francisco Ballet have to do with this thread?


Indeed.

Hey...you ruined my chance to knock your second-rate high school!


I never really fit in at Amity. Transferred there halfway through my
sophomore year and left halfway through my senior year. Graduated high
school back up here in Norwell, MA.

Amity was full of rich kids and my family was far from rich. The culture
was a bit too snobby for me. A regional school, I think it included Orange,
Woodbridge (where we lived) and Bethany. Some of the nicest, down-to-earth
people (IMO) were from the (then) hick, farming town of Bethany.

I thought "Pangea" was a unique name


The spelling is unique, for sure. Had you gone to a quality high
school, you would have known the word was spelled Pangaea. :}

It is actually spelled both ways. You will find numerous university
web sites hich have it listed as Pangaea.

You can also find web sites where they spell it Pangaea, and find
the maps they show have it listed as Pangea.

If you go to Dictionary.com, you will see most dictionaries say it
can be spelled either way.

I guess you don't know what SFB means either, NP

Hey! I lived in Westville. To us, Woodbridge and parts of Orange were
upper crust. :}

My father's boat store was in Orange, on the Boston Post Road. The
marina was in Milford. As I was growing up, Orange changed dramatically.

That will be interesting. I can hardly wait, imagine the savings in
air fare.

Yes, as the size of the "pond" shrinks it will bring Europe within our
fuel range.

Way cool, and saving the $1M+ of a Nordhavn or the indignity of
regressing to sail propulsion. :-)

That's nothing of course compared to being able to jump in your car
and drive over to the French Riviera for a few days of quality time
with all of those cute little European babes who forgot half of their
bikini.

Woo hoo, bring on Pangea Ultima, and the sooner the better.

Not so fast, RV H2O Cruiser....... Before Pangea Ultima, and for about
50,000,000 years beforehand, (give or take), the Atlantic Ocean will be
bigger than the Pacific.

Well, I guess you will have to cross the pacific in your floating RV.
You can even stop over at Hawaii.
