Ain't no vacuum in water, James Daggett, but you are absolutely correct 
about the levels.  Just goes to show that if you talk junk science long 
enough, it can become a fact.

Besides, Greenland was green 1000 years ago, and when it got cold the 
Danes abandoned their colonies.  We assume that what we see today 
always was.  Antartica once had trees (at least, there are coal 
deposits there).  I'd like to see a comparison of sunspot data and 
hurricane records.  We are currently in a period of extreme solar 
activity, but nobody seems to think that has anything to do with our 
weather.
