Meanwhile, yesterday marked the launch with a church service at St. Patrick RC Cathedral of the Coastal Zone Management Unit's "Tsunami And Other Coastal Hazards Awareness Week."  It is very, very doubtful whether any mention at all will be made during the week about the posting of the proper international signage warning of the dangers of swimming near groynes (as this blog has called for in the past), let alone any discussion of the economic and environmental dislocation groynes have caused in the Mullins Bay area since 2006.
