One "LOT" called Yanks? If you are referring to one SIDE being called the Yankee's versus the Confederates, then yes you are right. But to my knowledge during the war, parking lots did not exist, and there were no parking lots called Yanks. Lol...I appreciate the English language actually, and I am vehemently opposed to those who bastardize it, such as those blokes who speak Ebonics. Them wankah's are nothing but a bunch of twats. Arrrrgh matey, come aboard me ship.
