Well this is a coincidence. As I reply to this thread, the news just came on. Guess what? Yet another shark attack in Avon, North Carolina (in the Outer Banks just where we always go on vacation). Man is dead, his wife is severely injured and in the hospital. Freaky. Again, I don't care what anyone says, it IS unusual, as I have gone to Virginia Beach and the Outer Banks for years on years. And the Outer Banks is actually rather uncrowded on the beach, always has been, so it's not because there are more people.
