[edit] LBI is in NJ; not NY

I changed the Categories to properly reflect Long Beach Island New JERSEY. Whoever created ths stub had the two of the categories going to NY, which Long Beach Island has no association with NY at, nor is there a Ocean Coutny NY, it's Ocean County NJ. Just another example of why Wikipedia is not a very reliable source of information. I see several people went in and had already changed most of the erroneous references to NY, but missed the categories. How could anyone who created this page have associated Long Beach Island with New York. if they created it, they should have actually have known where it was located. [Edit it seems as if someone on May 18th had changed everything to read that it was located in NY.] --JerseyDevil 22:17, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Island geometry

Is there any information on how big the island is by area? All the information I could find measures its size only by length/width, but the width varies widely. Wl219 03:26, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  the island varies in width at the widest it is two miles wide but it goes down to only four blocks wide exept in the 1962 noreaster were the island were split in three places two in a small town in the northern end Harvey Cedars
