Swatting Bugs

I turned on the strictest and most verbose error reporting in both WordPress and PHP, and got a pile of non-critical error messages. It was pretty ugly. So I spent a while and fixed them all; actually, it didn't take that long. I don't like to be sloppy, just because the system can tolerate an error doesn't mean you should leave it.

Stubbed-in all the remaining extra files in Dive Sites and Artificial Reefs, and organized them, with Contents pages listing everything. Then I did the same for the Home section. Now up to 660 (blank) pages. Next - Biology.


rock ridge

This site on the Shark River Artificial Reef consists of two long ridges of seven huge rock piles each, with one long valley east-west between them. Between piles, there are smaller valleys. Each ridge contains approximately two million tons ( or one million cubic yards ) of granite, blasted and dredged from the bottom of New York harbor between September 2002 and September 2003. Peak depths range from 85 to 105 ft, bottom depth is 130 ft. In addition, 15 Redbird subway cars were deposited on or near one of the piles. A similar rockpile is located in shallower water on the Axel Carlson Reef.
