Howard, it looks like your neighbors loss is your gain. Why not greet your
neighbors and thank them?
Tom, I don't think Howard has a death wish that big. An offer of some
sympathy and some cups of coffee might be worth it. There is NO hint
of a smidgen of insurance coverage for this sort of disaster unless
they paid really heavily for it. As to WHY they built there given the
risks - damifino. I shake my head at it. People build in old river
courses, on the edge of cliffs often overhanging the cliff, in the
Mississippi flood plain, and even right next to "The Big One's" fault
line (like feet away and in some cases straddling.) Humanity is quite
fascinating to watch if you can manage some detachment from the scene.

to vicious when riled. {O,o}
