The article said it used to be a beach- "In the last ice age, between about 10,000 and 13,000 years ago, the water level was 90 feet lower then than it is today," Gifford said. "It's generally thought that along that early beach area, those early humans left their tools or whatever artifacts they found at that site."

The period between ~12,000 and ~10,000 years BS(Before SUV's) might have had erratic sea levels and wandering beaches. But generally, at the end of the last ice age the "beach" would have been ~200 miles to the east. And FWIW, most "experts" believe the last high stand ~125,000 years BS, virtually ALL of Florida would have been under water. I think these guys are fishing; no pun intended. So, I STILL need Tylenol.

OOPS!!! Brain flatulence! The Gulf(western) coast of Florida would have been ~200 miles to the WEST of its present location around the end of the last ice age. DUH!
