Dear mhaze,

I took nothing out of context. You were obviously thought AGW was a myth and scuttling about trying to say black is white is just making you look silly now. Time to stop. It is okay for you to have changed your mind on something but to claim you had always had a different view is just ludicrous, especially when you have been presented with your very words giving lie to it.

OK SR,

So you struggle to understand the simple written word. Got it.

OR is it that you prefer to carry that image than to admit the original error. Either way, not very edifying.

For those who wish to be informed I suggest that they have a look at The Water Will Come: Rising Seas, Sinking Cities and the Remaking of the Civilised World by Jeff Goodell - there is a good review of the book in the London review of Books, unfortunately it is behind a paywall and it is too long to post here. But perhaps the following quote may give a flavour of the piece: Global sea level rise is hard for scientists to predict, but the trend is clear. Massive ice sheets in Greenland and the Antarctic have begun to collapse, in a phenomenon known as ‘marine ice-sheet instability’, which previous models of global sea level rise didn’t take into account.
We are moving into unchartered territory. In the past humans could relocate inland but we are now so dependent on urban infra structure that the past is a poor guide.
