he moved to Kohala
I do agree, Kohala is quite nice. I almost bought a property near Hawi 15 years ago, but didn't want to drive 50 miles to Kona every day for work. I don't know where Graham is living in Kohala, but he did say South Kohala in his article, a large part of which is in lava zone 3 from Mauna Loa. As far as protection from a hurricane goes, whether it is protection because of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, or centrifugal weather systems... I think Iselle let us know that some of the folk wisdom about Big Island never getting hit by a hurricane might need to be reevaluated.
I think Graham's opinion piece is pretty right on... I hope that those with the power to do something about it all see it and take heed
There are problems in Puna, and Graham spent 30 years trying to address some of them. I agree dakine, we should take heed, and hope others will step in to fill his shoes, and not be fought every inch of the way.
