FYI... Changing it in the US only is exactly what Google is doing, just like with the Gulf.

    Did you search for lake America? I'm also in Europe and replied to your other comment with pics. It defaults to lake Ontario for me.

    No. I searched for Lake Ontario. That comes up with the pictures etc, and that has Lake America in backets. Then I zoomed in to it and it was just Lake America. However that was yesterday, today it is back to Ontario.
    The day before I also checked it out and it was only Ontario, without even the brackets. So it was only for a day for some reason.
