Buy a piece of property in the middle of sand dunes or down wind from it then complain about it? None of this is new! None of this will change! This has very little to do with the sand/dust. Be nice and close down the dunes. They will still blame the used for the dust 10, 15 and 20 years later. The locals will not spend their money to get large vacuum cleaners, vacuum up the sand dunes and dust. All very reasonable, Right!
OR
Get people with at least a ounce of brains, and point out the obvious to the people who bought there. It is like the people who buy a house at the end of a runway at a airport that has been their for 60 years. Then want the airport shut down because they do not like the noise. This seams to make sense, Right!
I was born in California and lived there for 63 years (minus vacation time in Viet Nam), again none of this is new. If you live there (Calif.) please stay their! I have a long history with land issues in my years living there. The years since I have left California have been much better!
If you want to save the much smaller play ground you have today. Spend a lot of money, go to meetings, do all of the work to fight to keep it open for you and all of your friends. You may get some additional time to spend with your sand before it closes.
Do not let science get in the opinions.
Before you get upset much of this is just Satire.
