Your firewall sucks. But, it's maintained by the county, right?

Beats me. Sometimes it even picks up "bad words" in Portuguese.

In a prior life, I was involved with a Scripts Institute study on the feasibliity of farming abalone. When asked what I did, I'd say that I was
breeding Abs. This always led to the question of "How do you breed Abalone?"
My reply was that it wasn't hard once you got them in the mood. This was always followed by "How do you get them in the mood?". My reply "you show
them porno movies of naked abs"
Maybe your firewall got it backwards and thought the shells were porno.

Cave litter north of Santa Rosaliita
The mouth of the cave in the distance is 15 to 20 feet wide and the shells spilling down the hillside below are more than a meter deep in places. How
many meals over how many years did it take to build up a pile of that many shells?
It's not as if they were harvesting and packaging them for the export market.

The site of those middens and the rape of Conception is pornographic.

How middens got started.
Early BajaNomadic types, discovering steamers, chocolates, and scallops, soon became clam addicts.
(All that remained was for someone to invent melted butter.)
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

We drove out to the lighthouse on Puerto Carranza off of Guerrero Negro, and saw huge piles (Some taller than I am - I'm 5'5" so maybe they werent
that huge:lol
But I couldnt believe how many piles there were!
The edges of the road and the road itself looked as if it was made from the shells

Miles and miles of these thick ancient middens along the coast.
Inland along the road in, there are shells too, just not as thick.
I have seen middens out on San Nicolas Island, off the CA coast, that are 20 feet thick.
Native Americans apparently liked to exploit the natural resources too.
