there are shoals that formed at the mouth of the Cape Fear River south of Wilmington, NC. Those shoals are shaped like a frying pan, and are called frying pan shoals. NOAA put a C-Man weather station tower/light tower out there on the tip of the shoals to gather weather information, and to warn of the shallow shoals. The NOAA tower is C-Man station "FPSN-7". There is great diving out on the shoals, shallow carribean-like diving (blue warm water, tropical fish, benthic animals, sharks, etc) I dive out there on the shoals....that is where my first ocean dive took place. Therefore I am "fpsndiver" although fpsdiver would have worked too. There!

Only a punk would say that! (I'm just joking around with ya! No need for harsh language.... it's over ok... look man, leave me alone.... come on, let's just go for a dive! BTW- My brother and you are the same age!)
 
Wow m, all this time I though you were Ms. Tudley. Dang...I though i was past all these strange names after mrobinson turned out not to be Mr. Obinson.
Maybe you two ought to change identities and make life easier for those of with addled brains after too many years underwater.
 
I changed my signature - does that help Tom?
