[gps-talkusers] Re: a shoreline

Hi all, I travel around the country on a regular basis.  I have seen this
different places, and what I have figured out is: If the body of water is
large enough it will say the name of the water.  I was in San Diego last
week and when I was near the bay it would say on a Shore Line San Diego Bay.
Now on the other hand in Amarillo, Texas where I live there are many dried
up lakes that do not have names.  The Braille Note says near a shore line
with out providing a name for it.  This is my observation at least
