From the USGS: http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1998/ofr-98-239/ofr-98-239.html "The Bainbridge Island landslide at Rolling Bay Walk is about three houses north of one that was pushed off its foundation on April 23, 1996 (#20, plate1.html; fig. 2). The landslide scar, deposits, and overturned house were still intact at the time of our observations, except for the disturbance caused by recovery operations. The scar of the slide was about 15 m wide, 15-20 m high, and averages 1 m deep. News reports indicated that the owner had built a retaining wall of unknown quality and design (Maier, 1997; Crist, 1997). Newspapers and a local resident indicated that the landslide happened shortly before 8:00 a.m., Sunday, January 19, 1997 (Maier 1997). A neighbor stated that the landslide lasted only a few seconds (Bjorhus and Tu, 1997). The row of houses appear to be constructed in a cut at the base of a steep bluff that rises from a narrow beach area. We observed scars of many old landslides on the bluff to the north of the houses. About five recent slides from 1996 and 1997 storms were visible along undeveloped bluffs not far north of the houses. More slides occurred at Rolling Bay Walk on March 18 and 19, 1997; these slides damaged two houses and pushed another house onto the beach (Wallace, 1997). The Oregonian: http://geography.uoregon.edu/mcdowell/geog322/newspaper_stories/seattle_area_mudslide_kills_family.htm The Seattle Times: http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19970120&slug=2519698 "The force of the slide flattened recently built retaining walls on the slope, officials said, pushing the house off its foundation and across a concrete walkway along the shore called Rolling Bay Walk. The two bottom floors of the house were buried in mud 8-feet deep in spots. Only the unfinished top floor of the house, which toppled on its side into the water, was visible." My humble apologies. It is just sometimes people make claims which are based on things they heard, which are exagerated. You are correct about the fatal mass wastage event. Again, I apologize BTW, please explain the apple thing come on now! this is the internet! you're not allowed to be rational or humble!!! apples => good will hunting. best line of movie: "let's go to haaavad and fawk up some smaat kids"

nice, one of my favorites from the code: build a dam and it breaks => become a slave would have been an interesting consequence after the challenger blew up?

here's a first for me from y-day: saw a tree squirrel leap off that big tree half way up wrong gull, then proceed to free solo up the vertical crack, jamming and liebacking on the knifeblade crack for 10 feet before boldy launching onto the face up to where all the blackberries used to be no clue what his exit strategy was, but i'm pretty sure the l'il feller ended up alright

...that on the day the cruel persians let loose their prisoners we practice justice by killing a man who might well be innocent?

bear in mind that, per colonel kurtz's instructions, i really try not to judge - i've no need to demonize the wealthy, whoever the masters of semantics ultimately decide that defines - rich, poor, in the middle, so long as the relationship remains a symbiotic one there's not much to argue over more than nuts n' bolts - in the end it's hard not to go w/ your gut though, and it doesn't strike me as class warfare on the well-to-do's to wanna squeeze them a trifle at the present time

have faith doood, and come next weekend if need be

i'll stay away from The Google to give you the satisfaction of telling me i'm running on the assumption that, regardless of the party in power, the various imps and demons that control the bells n' whistles of the economy will be doing so in order to serve the wealthy - the fed head seems to be the coke-slut that climbs into bed w/ whoever has the blow, for example

an inspiraton to never run again, since i will clearly always be in the "slackers" division?
