Sharks are totally ocean-living so it really means the same as fish...


Sharks are indeed a type of fish but unlike "fish" which implies benevolence sharks imply a type of fish that "attacks" and inflicts damage upon people and other living things near the coastal waters just like landfalling hurricanes do.

So I think the fact that shark are fish also is the point - fish curve out to sea but the bad fish (shark) go for the coast to attack, feed, etc..

fish, shark, fish fish, SHARK! :eek:

Sharks maybe ocean living...but Ophelia stayed out over water while trying to dislocate SC/NC from its current location...so I think shark would fit perfectly for Ophelia...

Even though the poll has spoken... I'm still using Land Lover as my "official" terminology, especially since I've used it before.
