Talk:The Lighthouse in the Middle of Nowhere (Book)

My limited understanding of lighthouses is that they signal danger, such as a rocky coast or reefs and ships are to go away from them not towards them. a spooky lighthouse sometimes appears out of nowhere to lure ships over the edge of the world. This passage seems to say the contrary, luring boats to the lighthouse, over the edge, not away. Does this make sense? ^Just for curiosity sake. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 11:44, 1 June 2007 (PDT)
