The Atlantic Ocean is awesome

From the CIA World Factbook:

The Atlantic Ocean is the second largest of the world's five oceans (after the Pacific Ocean, but larger than the Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean, and Arctic Ocean). The Kiel Canal (Germany), Oresund (Denmark-Sweden), Bosporus (Turkey), Strait of Gibraltar (Morocco-Spain), and the Saint Lawrence Seaway (Canada-US) are important strategic access waterways. The decision by the International Hydrographic Organization in the spring of 2000 to delimit a fifth world ocean, the Southern Ocean, removed the portion of the Atlantic Ocean south of 60 degrees south latitude.

What are your favorite things about the Atlantic Ocean?

You mean this was a serious thread????

:laugh:
 
It is the only swimmable ocean I can drive to. The Outer Banks beaches are ice-free year round, unlike the great unpleasantness next to California.

Temper temper. There's a story about glass houses in here somewhere.
