I want to share this personal story, regarding my previous experience with Florida development.
I couldn't have been more than 13 when we were on vacation in Florida. I believe it was Deerfield Beach.
There was a curbed road that paralleled the beach. On the landward side there was a vacant lot. A nest of baby Loggerheads had hatched out from that lot the night previous and could not make it up the curb on their way to the sea. They were ALL dead. Fried in the sun. A few run over. I cried. Nobody gave a Damn.
This was in 1965 or 66.
Sometimes I just plain hate Humanity.
