Yup! :D

Now, if you were to say the Pacific Ocean IS a lot of water, I couldn't
reasonable dispute that. Since an ocean is by definition comprised of a
lot of water, and all water in an ocean is part of it, it doesn't
*contain* any water whatsoever. :^P It's boundaries do the containing.
Of course, then there is looking at a globe from the S. Pole viewpoint
where you see there is only one ocean, not an Atlantic and Pacific. Man
my teachers hated me for that. :D
