    Better buy a boat now, before you drown ...

    Or maybe just stock up and rent the penthouse in the
    Empire State building.

    Actually, the last Blue Planet I watched showed ice mountains
    seven miles deep in the Antarctica which is as big as the US.
    Apparently, the ice melts and grows back at regular intervals.
    But what do I know ?
    I know that Algore is smarter than I am - I couldn't have
    invented the Internet, At least not in fifteen minutes like he did.

    Experts used twenty-five years of satellite data in the first analysis of its kind
    They found waters have moved up the shore by an extra millimetre per decade
    At this rate sea levels will rise by 65cm (two feet) by the end of the century
    Ahhh -- a centimeter is 10 millimeters. This means the "extra" millimeter per decade would amount to a whole centimeter in the course of the century.

      Data is flawed. Rising populations in whales and sea cows need to be figured as displacement. Just sayin'
