Either, actually, depending on the context. Not to be reckoned with in the sense that a person should not deal with such a powerful force, or to be reckoned with in the sense that the ocean's force is something to consider/bear in mind. Cafeful who you cuss ...

Lighthouses are rarely manned theese days. It's easy enouph to righ up automated systems with multiple bulbs, and easy enouph to have the systems linked to and controllable from a remote station.

Guest (630 days ago)

Yeah of course they are still manned, who changes the light bulb when it blows?

Guest: Harold (630 days ago)

now where did i park my car again...?

Guest: Jim (630 days ago)

Are these things still manned?

Guest: bert (630 days ago)

Guest: Zman (630 days ago)

Uhh, I think they were manned. At least before that storm. (Just kidding)
