I missed it, and I'll be out at obx for the next one.  How come I never get the invites for these things?

OBX is a much better place to be.

Seems like a good price for a coup attempt. I can see trying a few more on at those rates.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Based on eyewitness reports, this does not sound like a terrorist attack, but a simple structural failure. Witnesses described it like thunder, and shaking, like a landslide or earthquake. If it had been an explosion, they would have described it like a bomb, but nobody has as of yet. 

But just like the bridge collapse in Minneapolis, lack of funding for inspections.  This CONDO collapse is simply another argument against "no rules" deregulation that the GOP for the past 40 years has advocated for.

I'd guess, and yes, this is speculation on my part, key weight support like I beams or rebar over time were probably exposed to moisture and oxidization and rusted, and could no longer support the weight designed for causing the collapse of a higher deck causing a pancake domino event.
