I'm off to bum around Vermont for a week of vacation bliss. There probably won't be any updates for a while. Not there have been a lot recently anyway. Cheers.

There's been a landside in neighboring Fairfax County.

The hill also contains marine clay, which, when waterlogged, can adopt the properties of Jell-o, Pylant said. But he said that marine clay on hills elsewhere in Fairfax has not led to landslides. "I really believe this was a freak, isolated condition," Pylant said. "I have no reason to believe we are prone to any reoccurrences of something like this."

The hill is owned by the 600-member Landsdowne Homeowner Association, which would have to pay for repairs to the hill. Several members said the association has only a few hundred dollars in its reserves.

"Repair the hill" my ass. The hill's just fine. Fairfax needs to repair its land use policy. Until that happens, Fairfaxians should brush up on their landslide safety tips.
