Why aren't more people participating in this? I think it's interesting, as it's so hard to tell. Is that the problem - people don't want to admit they can't tell from these pictures what is what? Come on, give it a try!
It's because most people can't tell what is "just a lake" when presented with photos. Leaving in a few minutes, I'll post the answers tomorrow evening and let more people take a chance.

You should have "none of the above" or "other" as a choice in any poll so you can see how many people are truly interested in the subject of the poll.
Why would I put that as an option when obviously one or the other is considered the "3rd Coast" & over 60% of voters chose the Gulf Coast over the Great Lakes.
Its distinguished so distinctly even Forest Gump could understand it.
Salt water fish tastes MUCH better than fresh water does IMO. BTW you never told me how were the shrimp, oysters, & crabs you guys have up there in the Great Lakes.
Calamari anyone?
LOL. BelieveinCleve just made you look like a fool and now all you can do is change the subject.

Read a little deeper into the article & you'll see he's the fool. I've highlighted what he failed to address and/or attempted to hide from what was actually written.
Hell, Gulf Oysters alone account for over 70% of all oysters eaten in the US.

Last time I checked BP was a British company, not American & the Gulf of Mexico isn't solely owned by anyone just to clarify things a bit. Jurisdictions only go so far out into the Gulf, one reason Obama is all talk no action. The fact is he can't do jack **** about it so he talks tough because of pressure from the media. Oh yeah, he's really gonna whip them oil companies assses. Please...
BP still employs thousands of Gulf Coast residents.

If it weren't for the Gulf & its oil companies you'd be paying about $5.00 a gallon maybe more for gas right now. They don't call it black gold for nothing.

$5/gallon would still be cheaper than the $6/gallon they pay for "petrol" over in England. As for oil being "black gold," a quart of milk is more expensive than a quart of oil in the U.S.
