It seems like the islands get older, smaller, toward the northwest, ending in a chain of seamounts.

Which will win? Volcanos? or Erosion?

physically sick to see this.. I remember when it was 26 homes destroyed and now it's 700. I feel bad for the people who have lost their homes.

I know it's Mother Nature.. I was in an almost Cat 5 hurricane in '92 on Kauai.. I know about Mother Nature.. but this.. is going on and on forever!
