OT - Sea levels "Are the speed and amount of modern climate change unprecedented? No. Is dangerous warming occurring? No. Is the temperature range observed in the 20th Century outside the range of normal variability? No. During the last interglacial period, sea level was six metres higher than today. Air temperature was anywhere from 2 degrees C to 6 degrees C higher. We are the only generation of humans to fear warm times!" Chapter 2, "Heaven and Earth, Global warming - the missing science" Ian Plimer http://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Earth-Warming-Missing-Science/dp/0704371669 The book is an interesting one with a very different view than Gore would present. :-) ij
