<---- New Report for Thursday.
TBMaddux chimes in to let us know that the Santa Barbara Film Festival is having several Surf Centric Films in a program called Surf Sessions. Along classics like Big Wednesday are other popular films such as "Siestas y Olas" and one that showed at IV theatre not long back, "the Far Shore". No word on how much each of the nine movies that begin March 1 are, but stayed tuned for more info.
The Daily Nexus has an article about last nights meeting about the Goleta Seawall. If anyone was in attendence and wants to submit a few words about it, please email pope. One of my most anticipated classes at UCSB was Ocean Engineering. The class turned out to be as boring as Numerical Analysis but one thing I did learn: Seawalls increase water velocity nearshore. Higher Velocity = More sand picked up in water. More sand picked up = no beach. I'm amazed how many Goletians want a short term solution such as a seawall when a real long term solution is needed if they truely want a place to take their kids. Hey folks, read Willard.
