Love your definition posts, Mitchell. I already have a question, the pullman kitchen. Is that what we might call a galley kitchen, or not? To us, a galley kitchen is rectangular, and narrow. Am I close?

A galley is an actual kitchen though small, a pullman is not another room it is just appliances and a sink.
