If you had never seen the rocky southeast Alaska coastline, perhaps you wouldn't make such an ignorant comment. The coastlines do not change here, at least not without an earthquake, and I'm not walking on sand, which we do not have, but rather a paved road. Trust me, it isn't eroding/changing.

I live in a maritime community, where the shoreline hasn't changed, and I cannot tell you how often I walk on water. ;) Ahem! By definition, maritime coastlines change on each change of tide.
