RE: Galveston

Galveston island, where homes were devestated by Ike, is a barrier Island and should never have been built upon in the first place. — Full Mental Cynic

I disagree….

…if they can afford to replace the home every few years, they should be able to pay for the luxury of building a home in the proverbial ‘path of destruction’.

Let the free-market provide the opportunity to test Fate.

P.S. Maybe they could build a pub that would withstand such an incident. Considering what I’ve experienced in weather along the Front Range, it could be quite an ‘attraction’, for the stimulus and/or rational-sense-of-survival challanged.
