Many years ago in Milwaukee, where I lived, they were building a riprap embankment on Lake Michigan with stones they were blasting out of a deep tunnel for sewerage -- stones so big one of them was a load that filled a semi-trailer and could make my apartment building shake as it passed. Riprap can be awesome. But it takes a lot to control Lake Michigan.
