Default Lakes or ponds?


"Sacha" wrote in message
Frivolous question but - I was told once that the definition of a lake was
that it covered an acre of land. In discussing this with someone, I saw

an
internet definition giving 0.25 of a hectare as a lake. Anyone got any
other ideas/sources/definitions?

Then there's the question of, when is a pond only a puddle. :-)
