re: #519 Iron Fist

I’m not sure why anyone is getting too excercized about the seas rising, anyway, at least as it is used as “proof” of anthropomorphic global warming. The seas have been much higher that they are now in the past. Much higher. If youknow where to look and what rocks to look into here (in East Tennessee) you can find all the fossil evidence you care to that this area was at one time under water.

And it was under water a long time before there were humans to “cause” the sea to rise.

Anyway, isn’t this a moot point? Barack Obama said that if he was elected the seas would stop rising. Well, he’s been elected. So that is one potential catastrophy of “global warming” that we need no longer worry about.

If the seas are indeed rising, it’s pretty darned exciting if you’re a human being. We’re wee delicate creatures who like things to stay the same.
