Phil,

I assume that you were meaning to say 'East' of Ocean City and 'East' of the
Baltimore Canyon in your posting. The closest canyon west of Ocean City
might be Red Rock Canyon in Oklahoma and that one isn't underwater
(actually, I'm sure there must be one closer, but you get the idea). We
should transpose east for west in this post, correct?       ;^D
