>>>>>>>beachfront will be many miles out to what is now sea>>> Just the opposite of this is happening on Galveston Island. The beach is eroding very rapidly. Every hurricane or storm takes more sand. A couple of years ago the city of Galveston spent millions of $ dredging sand & pumping it backup on the beaches. Houses on the west end that used to be several streets back from the beach are now beach front.

Yeah, that's what the Art Bell guest said. We probably wouldn't notice any change in beach erosion rates if the sea level rises or falls a couple inches in half a decade Tides and storms would have a much bigger effect.

There are new satellite readings, last summer in fact, that indicate a reversal in the direction of change shape of the planet lately, the past 5 years, a flattening in the equatorial region. This makes the whole sea level problem a little less simple. Legally, though, land ownership, the situation is covered by survey practice whatever happens to the shoreline.

Wow, you mean the highway between Galveston and Freeport I just traveled in July is now gone? Sure there is beach erosion that has been going on for years , but don't exagerate that much.
