   Two sun-burned ship-wrecked wretches, arguing while their bottoms shrivel from constant salt-water immersion? —It could only be Monty and Moonie….

   Expecting to see Kevin Costner stick his head up out of the water any moment now.

   Boston is digging out of a record 10 inches of global warming. It’s time for the tree-huggers to chew on something else for a while.

   if physics applies to everything then why doesnt a glass of ice water run over when the ice is left to melt in it ??

   Because what’s here is here. Archimedes would call these yahoos idiots.

   Well, because of the laws of Physics? Remember that most of the ice is already displacing water. And since ice is less dense than water (remember – it floats), the water will remain at the same level when it melts. It’s when the Greenland and Antarctica ice shelves melt that the seas will rise. And they have already started. The seas are rising.

    Local, temporary weather does not negate climate change. Global warming is a scientifically indisputable fact. For instance – did you know that the lake effect snowfall which occurs in upper state New York was once much less than it is today? The reason is because the Great Lakes used to freeze over in winter, preventing most of the evaporation that contributes to the snowfall. All of the nay-sayers will eventually understand – after it has become too late.

    The seas have been rising for thousands of years. The rate of increase is what worries some scientists. They have been warning of a dramatic increase but it hasn’t happened as predicted, that worries them because if they are wrong they will lose their research funding.

    And all our big cities are built on the coast. The world is always changing. We just now have the media coverage that allows us to see it all over. Where I live it used to be hotter in the summer.

    Sooooo…back to the strip? When is Fleshy going to fall out of the palm tree and try and eat the parrot who has just returned from “New America” carrying a response to the message he left with tied to his leg, a beer, sunflower seeds, and a can of cat food?

    It will start showing when the land ice gets melted. Frozen water takes up more volume than liquid water.

    No the sea hasn’t been rising for thousands of years.
