WOW I was away from the computer for a few hours and just got back to read this firestorm of comment!!   WOO HOO!    I'm SO glad the article was taken down and hope to heck it wasn't already included in the PNJ's print edition, which is actually printed in Mobile, AL for delivery here before dawn.   I'll check it out in the a.m. and let you know.

So this is just as  bad as I feared.   I am really, really sorry that apparently our new beach beat reporter got roped in  by these people.  He's pretty young and probably not terribly knowledgeable about things coastal and, as stated, brand new to our area and the paper, so I  have to believe he just didn't know.  Doubtless he sure does now.    I will try to approach it with him gently next time I talk to him.  I would have written him directly when I first saw the article but needed exactly the kind of ammunition you folks could provide.  

I only wish that I could see the comment(s)  you posted on the apparently now-defunct article.

Good for you, Chris, for contacting NOAA.  Let us know if you receive a personal reply.  I wonder if they were the ones responsible for getting the article pulled.
