BTW, Snowshoe, I saw no erosion and have heard no complaints. My grandfather’s house is as near the water as it was 92 years ago, judging by the photos. I think the problem is localized to certain areas right now. But flat coastal areas can be severely impacted even if the sea only rises a little, because of erosion. I live on a very active coastline consisting of unconsolidated glacial deposits, and for many years I've used a coastal bike/hike/ski trail along an eroding coastal bluff. Several years ago they had to move the trail 100 feet back from the bluff, and big chunks of the old trail have now collapsed down the bluff. This type of erosion will be greatly accelerated if sea levels rise. On another subject, here's a tech project that sounds like something only Maurice could dream up. I'll bet they could use some of that transparent aluminum... TOWER OF POWER "An ambitious plan is afoot to erect the world's tallest structure, a one-kilometre high tower, at an out-of-the-way rural location in Victoria. The purpose, as Graeme O'Neill reports, is to tap into the awesome – and largely untapped – power of the sun." bulletin.ninemsn.com.au!open
