  2. Thanks. It's incredible how quickly the planet is changing. My part of FL has become unrecognizable in just my lifetime. I think about the scene from "Back To The Future", when Marty first goes back and ends up at the brand new entrance to his future development, as I'm driving around and watching woods and farmland being churned under for endless, cookie-cutter housing developments.
