Easier to hose down though.
She can start with herself.
No, the aliens were going to take liberal Dems to a interplanetary zoo and display them, as semi intelligent life. :-)
MITZY GOIL doesn’t have to worry about the human race, since she isn’t human.
Well, depends how you define a "container"... I would think it would have to define a specified volume and as such it too would have to have specific dimensions, that is a one gallon container would have to have dimensions such that the container would enclose a volume of 231 in3, no more, no less. Pouring water of any quantity on a sphere get you a puddle and a wet sphere. If you en-blue the sphere with a mysterious force of attraction for water you will get a sphere with a coating of water, which in no way may be said to contain the water since it is a surface layer. Since the root of "container" means to "contain" a magic sphere does not fill the bill.

PS Are we still having fun?
To compare current CO2 levels to past levels and assume the temperatures must be the same is very poor science.
Is there ANYONE now adays worrying about the cows that fart!
So okay, in the begining the earth had a finite amount of water. When all said and done some of it froze some of it remained liquid and the rest vapor. Equal. Moving them around in different states doesn't change the amount just the properties (solid, liquid, gas). And it's a balance; it all can't become liquid, it all can't become gas and it all can't become solid. There was liquid water during the ice ages. When all that ice melted, did it flood or cover continents?
Not continents, no, but it did cover up areas like what used to be the land bridge between Asia and North America where the Bering Sea is now. And many coastlines were dramatically different then.

Things happen slowly in the scheme of things. Check this out: Is a mini ICE AGE on the way? Scientists warn the sun will ‘go to sleep’ in 2030 and could cause temperatures to plummet
New study claims to have cracked predicting solar cycles
Says that between 2030 and 2040 solar cycles will cancel each other out
Could lead to ‘Maunder minimum’ effect that saw River Thames freeze over. Read more:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3156594/Is-mini-ICE-AGE-way-Scientists-warn-sun-sleep-2020-cause-temperatures-plummet.html
It encroached on the dry land. In other words it caused the "sea-level" to rise. In no way did the earth's surface "contain" the additional water as it did what water always does, it seeks it's own level. One might as well say that the atmosphere contains the oceans since it defines the surface. In this context the word "contain" takes on a rather trivial meaning.
and it all can't become solid
The only thing preventing that eventuality is the energy radiated by the Sun. If the output were to start dropping more and more liquid water would freeze. The Ice Ages had glaciers that were at least a mile thick and you could walk from the European land mass to the isle known as Great Britain without getting your feet wet.

Even if this was a Reality (yeah, I know), exactly what do these Morons think that us puny Humans could do to stop it?
I sit here in utter amazement realizing that People are so gullible that they think there is some sort of a Science Fiction solution.
We can CGI ourselves out this I guess. Quick, call those Special Effects guys that worked on the Noah Movie.
Except for the Sleeping Sun and the coming mini-ice-age.
Right now it is way too cold to snow much in Antarctica.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute....Are you trying to tell us that it doesn't snow at the South Pole?
So then where did all that ice come from?
LOL Maybe it’s only rising where they measure.
If there is warming in the southern hemisphere (there has not been so far), that will change and Antarctica will start to gain ice more rapidly.
Again?
Yes! It was “Org the one who killed gophers and made much gore in the killing”
