Reread artcles that use the words climate change, deleting the word change. They could almost pass for anormal article.

All of these dire predictions are based on a reversal of Coriolis Force.

Wouldn't that require the earth to slow its spin? Maybe they're actually after a genocide to depopulate the earth so all them people don't slow it down and the climate deal is just a diversion....

“The government science report predicts that sea levels may rise more slowly across the Pacific Northwest than in other parts of the country....”

Hmmm - I wonder if the jerk neighbor kid of my childhood is with the Government these days?

Your two year trend of sea-levels going down. You’re just being silly. Only global warmers are allowed to take two years of data and project them out 50 years!

(BTW - based on previous ice-age cycles, this two year trend could very well continue into a full blown, mile thick ice over Seattle type of event. Which I have been thinking we are due for since Al Gore brought all of this crap to our attention.)

I'm thinking that to reverse Coriolis Force the earth would have to reverse its spin. That means all clocks would have to be replaced bringing the entire world's economy to a halt. There is the added danger that during the reversal centrifugal force would briefly drop to zero therefore not countering gravity and all of mankind would be crushed.

We're all gonna die!

Probably true.

Hundreds of billions of tons of ice melt, and you are going to get some pop-back.

However, an increased danger of less pressure to hold in the volcanoes!

In the year 2100, 99.5% of Seattle housing will not be affected by rising waters. Thanks for the info.
