If someone's house is in danger of falling into the bay, it is time to move
the house. There are very few things I am sure of, but the bay will see 2
to 5 ft. waves many times in the near future.

He reminds me of a little kid with ADD who is jumping up and down
saying
"look at me" "look at me", oh won't someone pay me some attention.

I loved his attempt at showing concern about NYOB, when he said he
would
not
push him out of the way if I bus was going to hit him.



I bet he is sandbagging his house in anticipation of the tremendous
storm
surge he is expecting on the Bay from this tropical storm.

As you know, much of the beach area is at sea level where he lives.
LOL!


You obviously never saw the photos of our yard that I posted about two
years ago. While there are many areas along the Bay that are indeed
only
a couple of feet higher than the water reaches at high tide, we're on
higher, safer ground, with no erosion problem.

Never been to the Bay, eh, dumfoch? Even some of those on higher ground
are nervous every time there is a significant storm. Their houses sit
on
cliffs that are subject to erosion and eventually will collapse into
the
Bay. They're not on land I'd ever buy, but it does provide a
spectacular view while it lasts.

Look up Calvert Cliffs. Wait..you're not that clever. He

There are houses on cliffs adjacent to these where the geology is
precisely the same.


So? We have plenty of similar cliffs along the perimeter of the Great
Lakes
and their islands.

Unless their houses are now to/near the edges of those cliffs (because
of
erosion) then there is nothing to worry about.


Some of them are a couple of feet away from where the edge is now...and
over the years, some of them have fallen as the cliffs collapsed. So,
there is plenty to worry about...



All bodies of water see storms. All land along those bodies of water
erodes
over the years. Been so since the beginning of time.

Not much of a geology student, eh? I suppose that's because you never
took a geology course because you never attended college.

You're not very bright, Bennis. Or whatever your name is today.
