I get it. It’s too hard for you understood the different levels of local government. Would it have been easier for you to understand what I meant if I had listed every town in THE TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD that got a tidal surge

Oceanside/Baldwin/Freeport/Baldwin/Merrick/Bellmore/Wantaugh/Atlantic Beach/Lido Beach/Point Lookout/ Long Beach.

Instead I shorthanded it saying said THE TOWN of HEMPSTEAD because the person I was addressing knows Long Island.

Do you address your cards to Nassau County? Yet every town you named is in Nassau County. And in the Town of Hempstead

You were correct! The people of the Town of Hempstead were the hardest hit of all! So much harder than the people of the Rockaways, as this video clearly shows.

Mea culpa.
