It Is More Sensible to Move Inland the Montauk Point Lighthouse

"... it seems entirely reasonable, if not painfully obvious, to say that the Surfrider plan [to move the Montauk Point Lighthouse inland] sounds fundamentally better than that [to build a seawall] of the Corps, which reflects a dated, discredited philosophy and sends exactly the wrong message about how to deal with coastal erosion." - excerpt from this New York Times article (registration required).
