"Have you noticed that Hurricane Frances looks like Ms. Pacman getting ready to eat FLA?" I'd rather be eaten by Ms. Pacman than Pacman... This is a lot more consistent with what happens on the Gulf Coast, historically speaking, than what the situation has been over the past few decades. There is a reason why people haven't built heavily on the coast until recently. Hint: it isn't because they were too stupid to realize how attractive beach front property is. It probably had more to do with nature having it's own form of Urban Renewal. In this part of the world, building on the coast, by the edge of a river or on a lake side is stupid. Unless you like losing your house. Complaining about it is like moving next to an airport and complaining about the noise... Or building a house on a seaside cliff in Malibu. Let's see, the cliff erodes at 3 feet a year and I want to plant a $3 million house 10 feet from the edge. I should be able to live here, hmm, ok, this is tough..., forever!
