'Sneaker waves' blamed for deaths in California family
SAN FRANCISCO-- Howard Kuljian and his family were out for a walk on a moist, overcast early morning at Big Lagoon beach, playing bring with their dog Fran as 10-foot surf churned the water just feet away like a washing machine. Indicators near the beach cautioned of "sneaker waves," the kind that suddenly roar ashore. Kuljian tossed a stick that took the dog to the water's edge, and in an instant, authorities said, a wave swallowed it, setting off a nightmarish scramble. "Everything kind of snowballed from there," said Coast Guard Lt. Bernie Garrigan. Kuljian's 16-year-old son, Gregory, ran to save the dog, only to be caught by the surging surf himself. Kuljian, 54, followed, and then his spouse, Mary Scott, 57. On coast, their 18-year-old daughter, Olivia, and Gregory's girlfriend could only watch.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
