I think, One More BIG HIT on Destin's Beaches won't stand it! They are small as is. Why doesn't most people of SoWal want to prevent this happening to our beaches?

Prevent? When you figure out how to prevent it, alert Florida's Department of Environmental Protection and let them know. Because, as it stands now, there are no solutions. Our houses and beaches exist at the whim of Mother Nature.

People here care deeply. But I think we also care about the greater environment, and we are generally suspicious of short-term fixes (ie expensive beach scraping) that can cause greater problems down the road were another hurricane to come our way.

If we were really smart, we would discover a way to break up hurricanes. However, then we would be creating a "Don't Grow" box and the Earth would build up steam and eventually implode.

I heard that the prevention program was voted down. Then I heard that The County is over turning the votes.

I do not think anyone on this board is aware of this "prevention program" of which you speak. Tell us about it.

Prevention program? You know something I don't, so tell us more.

Dabell may be referring to beach renourishment. If that is the case, there were no actual votes - but there is/was a very vocal group of opponents. I remember seeing discussion about them when I first joined this board a couple of months ago.

Yes! The Renourishment program would be a prevention method program to try to keep our beaches looking the way they do. I heard that the County did take Votes on it and was voted down.

By the way, Destin is in Okaloosa County. 30-A is in Walton County.

There has never been a referendum on beach renourishment - although the matter has been tabled numerous times through the years for various reasons, including threatened legal action by the opposition group. However, there is currently another active thread, with an update from the TDC as to the status beach restoration activities. Obviously, at this point it is reactive instead of proactive. :roll:

Just making sure. Your earlier post:

sounds like you are talking about a program in Destin, so I was unsure if you knew.

I think the "Federal Mayor" and W broke Nagin's arm in a thumb wrestling competition, and Nagin cried "You the Mayor!"

LOL.

Just one UGA grad helping another. ;-)

Can anyone tell me why most of the paths here stop at the TX/OK boarder, but the orange one goes all the way up? Does this mean the orange path is the one they think it will follow?

Re: Where's This Strom Heading?

Strom's dead! Wasn't he, like, 100 when he died?
JK.

Don't take it personally. We're just being silly and giving you a hard time. One thing you have to learn on this board is to take some teasing and, in some cases, have a thick skin.

As if none of has ever made a tpyo or grimatikal air-er.

No kidding I guess she hasn't met RO yet.





Although, I think RO and I are tied.
