What is a coastal stump?
a coastal stump is a rock that has been washed through the middle and left a stump Answer: A coastal stump is a pillar of rock which exists offshore from a cliff at the seas…ide. It is awash at any but low tide. A stump is the result of the erosion of a pillar, a column of rock that is visible at all tides and protrudes from the ocean surface. A pillar is in turn the result of the collapse of an arch, a part of the cliff that has worn through creating a column of rock still attached to the cliff by a ribbon of rock above the surface of the water.

How do you burn a stump?
First and foremost, obtain a burning permit from your local municipality(this will ensure that it is legal to burn in your area) As for the burning itself. The safest way …is to obtain a 55 gallon drum and remove the top and bottom. This will ensure containment of the fire. When it comes to the actual fire, there are many theories. I can only attest to what has worked for me. I do not use any chemicals or petroleum products. (I live on a waterway) I use seasoned wood and pack it into the drum and light like a camp fire. For a stump approx. 24 inches in diameter it takes about 2-3 days. The drum being around it allows me to leave the fire and stump and get some sleep. There are people that will drill holes in the stump and fill with diesel, kerosene, or saltpeter(sodium nitrate), then burn. I cannot attest to this method due to my land being on a waterway. But in conclusion remember to make sure it is legal in your area, and that you are safe in your containment of the fire. Burning a stump rarely works. The dirt surrounding the roots and stump prevent a complete burn. The most effective removal is stump grinding. In most cases you can have it done for less than renting a machine. (MORE)

Why do hamsters have stumps?
If you are referring to the thumb-like stumps on the "hands" than that is an evolution of what was probably thumbs. AS the years went by they probably ended up not really usin…g the extra finger or thumb, which later lead to evolution. Pretty cool huh? If you are referring to a stump where a leg should be, i would say birth defect or an accident that could have happened just about anywhere. Hope i helped and sorry if not! (MORE)
