I know what you mean, Steve. On the lighter side, we went out to Landry's the other night, which is a LA-based chain of LA-style seafood restaurants...upscale. We were there with another couple. This was shortly after they started pumping out New Orleans. One of the choices on the menu was, "Ponchatrain Catch of the Day." When the waiter went to tell us what kind of fish it was that evening, my wife politely told him she didn't want anything caught from Ponchatrain in the past few days.
