This is precisely why we wanted to live near the gulf coast. We want the air from the gulf. It is most excellent.

I was racing a stock car late this morning. No air conditioning in a stock car and I was in a fire suit.

Only around 89. Not bad at all. Very nice actually. Very much cooler than the 95-105 my wife and I had gotten used to elsewhere.

No difference, I am sure the person who questioned it knew exactly what was being talked about but just felt it was important to bring up an insignificant variance in the way some people refer to them.

If you check some sites they are referred to as Blue Crab, Callinectes sapidus (A.K.A. Blue claw crab) and blue claw may be a little more of a northern name but still the same crab.

You gotta keep picking away jack. As i said, never heard a blue crab called a blue claw maybe yanks up north call them that.

Different strokes for different folks and I respect that. Not everyone likes the same thing. Unfortunately, "some" people don't think so.

I've never heard the term "blue claw" either. Not saying it doesn't exist, I've just never heard of it.
