On the other hand... (original) (raw)

A rise in sea levels could mean that....

"Most of the village of Kennebunkport along with President Bush’s family home on Walker’s Point could be completely submerged."

Now, that's what I call funny. I mean tragic, and sad. But still funny.

I was talking to somebody else about this, and they say "Well, I won't be here then, I'll have moved." Moved where? Inland? Like that'll save you. What does she expect, that she's the only one bright enough to get while the getting's good, that all the poor sods on the coast (most of humanity - for some reason, they just keep putting major cities near shipping! Imagine!) will just wait while the water goes up higher, and higher, up to their necks, and submerges them? Why? Because, wait, don't tell me, they have faith in God.

People don't think.
