My stepfather has a sick crib on Siesta Key. If I had to guess from staying there a ton, I'd say his sliding glass doors in back are about 10ft above the water level of the intercoastal that runs behind his house. Floor to 16 ft ceiling back wall is all glass. Not looking good... [Reply]

It’s a body of water, no matter how small, it has an alligator in it. Don’t swim in lakes and streams in Florida. [Reply]

Or perhaps many people have stopped trusting the sources that used to be universally recognized as trustworthy because they have proven to not be trustworthy any longer. :-) [Reply]
