In all my years in this hobby, I have never heard of a California overflow nor a coast to coast overflow. Have any pics?

I think it's also called a Calfo style overflow.

coast to coast, and calfo I've heard it called... but california? It seems like people like to make up names for things these days.

The best part is that Anthony never called it a "calfo" overflow, nor did he invent it. He is just advocates their use... so people started calling it a Calfo style overflow. I guess everyting needs a name :)
