Surfers, wildlife win battle to keep out toll road
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23048514/
DEL MAR, Calif. - Surfers and environmentalists threw a roadblock in front of a proposed toll road near one of the world's best surf breaks — but backers say they will fight on.

The California Coastal Commission voted 8-2 late Wednesday against the project, which critics said would wipe out about a dozen endangered or threatened coastal species, decimate an ancient Indian burial ground and block sediment that creates world-class waves at San Onofre State Beach.

EAT IT DELAWARE!

1. There are no tolls near the Delaware beaches
Just the boring I95 part in the middle.

3. That's because Deleware doesn't have any beeches

5. What are you - a dumbass or something
You do know that DE is on the Atlantic Coast which means there is a good chance we have FUCKING BEACHES!!! Rehobeth, Dewey, Bethany, Slaughter, Lewes - we have plenty of beaches.

Rehobeth is actually a very popular destination for GBLT community.

6. I think she meant the tree...
Delaware has lovely beaches. I've been going to Rehoboth, Dewey and Bethany for years.

7. But LSK told that the beeches were ruined in the process of toll road production
And he's never wrong.
