Thanks for the article Chris - I will read it a bit later as I have an seminar to go to this morning.

I am sure I was taught that the sea levels in the past were about 400 feet higher than they are today - of course, that would be at maximum warming and all glaciers melted..

I guess we shall all see what happens - it seems to be to be a lot of data to take into account for all this global climate change - sun activity, deforestation, increase output of fossil fuel exhaust, el nino, la nina (I'm sure they have to have something to do with it) and just the earth's progression out of the last ice age..

I guess I'll find out if he touches on the possibility of stopping the ocean currents? Or what kind of effect all that fresh cold water will have on the ocean currents?

Gotta go for now..
