Kirk should be promoted and the rest of the idiots fired. He’s obviously the only rational employee with that bank.

When I was in Orlando, I would have appreciated news about Miami going underwater.

'who cares if Miami is underwater' ... 'nutjobs are always warning about end of world' ...

Have you ever seen a glass of water with the water higher on one side than the other? Never. If Miami was 'sinking' due to water rising then Jacksonville, Tampa, Palm Beach and Tampa would also be 'sinking'...

(And acid rain? All the oceans and lakes were suppose to be dead by now. Global cooling? Glaciers were suppose to be in New York and North Carolina by now... and and and and...)

He is right of course. Who cares? It’s not as if the oceans are going to suddenly rise two feet and flood Miami. Any sea rise would happen slowly and homes would naturally start being built further inland. In would happen over decades. And, that’s if you actually believe their b.s. They have been telling us the sea levels would rise for 100 years now, and it has yet to happen.

Also, the left points to beach erosion to support their theories. Beach erosion happens due to government interference with the shoreline. Things such as off-shore dredging to deepen ports, building retaining walls, etc. will have effect on nearby beaches and cause erosion.

The only difference I see is that one picture is black and white and the other is in color.

Because I grew up in a black and white world, I can tell that the flat area around their little castle is water all the way to the sea wall just below the hill rising in the background.

The color picture just enhances the water, also what time of day were the two pictures taken, black and white at low tide, color at high tide?

An easier way to do it is just count the runs of stone below the window, they are the SAME, so I have to call bullshit on these pictures telling me the water level is higher!

A little bit of attention to detail puts the lie to their claim.
