1-2 pretty obvious if we get the marginal seas. Do we?

Being a Futurist, I'm going for the Southern Ocean, particularly if you include Australia, as one should.  Global Warming is going to kick butt over the next 100,000 years!

John,

If I rank them, I'll probaly be accused of bias.

Besides, I wouldn't want them to start changing in an ultimately futile effort to sway the panel.

John,

Scotland, Ireland and the rest of the UK on ones side and Long Island on the other...

I wonder which ocean that might be?

The Pacific is pretty sweet with the Pebble Complex, CPC, MPCC, PG, Bandon Complex, Chambers Bay (In the Sound) off the Pacific.

What about the relationship Australia has with what oceans?  Could someone explain how many bodies of water are contiguous and which one provides the best setting for golf.

The courses on Barwon Heads have a flirtatious relationship with the Tasman Sea that is often leering but punctuated by bouts of genuine frothiness, Barnbougle is married to Bass Strait through troubled times and still, while Mornington Peninsula has a formal marriage to the Strait but as they almost never see each other perhaps no surprise that she sometimes takes up with Port Philip Bay when he whispers sweet nothings from the West.

Oh and Fremantle wouldn't let her baby  daughter Golf anywhere near the Indian after his first-born daughter Sailor took up with the Indian's personal Doctor only to discover the Doctor was a lecher who never bothered to show up before 3 o'clock in the afternoon and even then not always.

Don't get Queen Adelaide started on the Bight, who is all wet but gives nothing save for old men sitting in a dry season praying for rain.

What was the question again?
