"Sorry, you are wrong. The rest areas are called rest areas. An oasis is a rest area that is on a bridge above and across the interstate. The only oasis I know of is near O’Hare airport where there really wasn’t enough land to build a conventional rest area." - Ann de IL

Actually, I am correct that there is more than one. See here:

If you reread the quote of my post in your last message, you will see that I used a phrase “that I know of”. I did not say that it was the only one, just that it was the only one I knew of.

You, however, did not use such a qualifying phrase in stating that “each rest stop is identified as an oasis”
