  2.  @paulschulte1064  Yes, and if you build homes on a coastal swamp, the sea will ALWAYS be your enemy. This is nothing new - just ask the population of Venice, or any of the now non-existent coastal swamp settlements. All you're doing is restating the facts, that these people were fools to build on a swamp in the first place. Do you think you've offered some brilliant insight or a witty put down? "Next stupid response" indeed.

  5.  @paulschulte1064  Sorry if basic logic eludes you. let me break into into baby steps that you might comprehend: you said "People have been here for thousands of years." as though that constitutes any kind of argument. To which I, your clear intellectual superior responded "Neanderthals existed for hundreds of thousands of years until they weren't." thus demonstrating that past habitation does not infer or guarantee any permanence on a constantly changing planet. I know I used some grown up words there - maybe your daddy can explain them to you. I don't have the crayons to make it any simpler. You're dismissed.
