No! Since we have to keep reminding the British
that the *Vikings*, not the British discovered New Foundland.
And when they did it, there *was no* Atlantic Ocean.

Tweren't even the Brits to be precise.
Just another itinerant Genovese snake-oil salesman.

There wasn't an ocean there?

Well, since those of us with brains don't even
ask active duty US Navy people about oceans,
it goes without saying that the last
people we people we ever ask questions
about oceans are retired US Air Force people.
The only thing we advise them is to buy a
condo somewhere in Florida, and buy three
.44 Magums. One for you, one for your
Marine wife, and one loaded one for
the people who can shoot.

Gee, you are so funny. The original poster said

If taken literally he was saying there was no ocean there hence my wise ass
question.

As for my shooting abilities I am an NRA shooting instructor and earned
marksmanship awards in both the Army and the Air Force. Oh, and it is spelled
"magnums" which you would know if you actually had the brains you claim.

Have a fine day.
