[Sca-cooks] Turkey Defrosting?

[Elise Fleming]

Greetings!  When I was (much!) younger, my parents always defrosted a
frozen turkey in cold water in the sink.  Now, I see on the back of my
frozen turkey's packaging  that it says not to defrost in warm water.  Is
the tricky word "warm" vs "cold" or shouldn't packaged turkeys be defrosted
in water at all?  If not, how can one get it to defrost in one day??  It
isn't defrosting fast enough in the refrigerator.
