So, when I speak of our media it is a boast, but it is not bragging and it is not because I am so full of myself, it is simply what has been done and is no where near as important as what is yet to come - the next challenges, the future of dragons that must be slain, because anything previous is simply past accomplishment, nothing more, nothing less.
I am sorry for calling you a jackass earlier. I actually don't think you are a jackass as a person and many times have seen your wit and witticisms and knowledge here and felt you are truly a stand up guy. I just thought your comments about the tsunami were out of place and out of character. That's all.
You know if we ever met I would be the first to buy you a... well not a beer since that would go straight to your stomach... but you get the picture.

i appreciate this and I apologize as well for calling you a name and all. just like your being proud of your accomplishments such as being featured in a major mainstream magazine and mentioning that, i am as well with mine. i am glad we see eye to eye on that.
also, my thoughts on what a wall is were sincere, i simply don't/didn't see it as a wall. i understand about retaining walls and honestly did not think of that initially.
but the fact is that the media is reporting 30+' tall wall of water and i don't see it happening that way in the videos. can a wall be 3-4'? yes, i was not thinking of a retaining wall sort of situation, just clarifying in my mind the reports of 30' walls of water and a hollywood-type image of that.
peace.
