Thanks, I'm pretty thick skinned, or maybe just ambivalent. My turn to be the scapegoat. All the erosion is my fault.

I'd be much less sarcastic about this subject if folks said something like: "I filled sand bags and made temporary dams to protect my property, but I was unable to avoid damage caused by wakes", instead of "I called the MP 20 times today, I joined WinnFABs, I complained on the Internet, and I STILL have erosion". Ugh, hello... do something besides picking up the phone, writing checks and typing. It's YOUR land, be a person of action; the world loves people of action.

Somehow, pointing this out makes me as (or perhaps more) evil than the folks actually causing the erosion.
