    Hey John, I’m envious. However, I think I’ll wait for the water level to rise a bit before I pay you a visit.

    Better get out the walking shoes, John.

    Sea level rise, if it exists at all, is likely a little over 1 mm a year. A rather academic interview with Nils-Axel Morner is at http://www.climatechangefacts.info/ClimateChangeDocuments/NilsAxelMornerinterview.pdf.
