This has implications, alright. Alot of media, proffesorship and pundit jobs are on the line if this global warming stuff isn't true.

So, exactly how far inland should I purchase my ocean-front properties?

A lot of media, professorships and pundit jobs are on the line if this global warming stuff isn't true.

Takes too long before definitive proof comes in.

I haven't heard of anyone predicting that computers would bring about the "paperless office" losing his job. Nor those who were predicting that by the 80s, productivity gains would be such that no one would have to work full time, and the main demand for labor would be for psychotherapists to help the masses deal with all that free time. (Yes, I read that in a newspaper back in the 70s! I remember because it was so patently ridiculous it was hard to forget.)

Of course, maybe they didn't lose their jobs because no one can remember who they were. ;-)
