one of the commenters on the above

"I'm editor at an academic publishing company, and this is something I
see all the time. Old men have a habit of deciding that they know
better than the experts of a field in which they have no formal
education and draft a manuscript that they believe rights all the
wrongs currently on tap. Usually, they are scientists who think they
know all the answers to the world's political and economic problems,
but I've seen a few economists go off the deep end as well. Given the
frequency of the proposals, it appears to be part of the natural aging
process. Someone give the man a desk by a window and keep him away
from keyboards."

I see old froggie is going to be swimming sooner than he thought.

Screw Frogego, he is at Tallahassee, if I read his position correctly,
that is about 55 feet above sea level (or 188 feet depending on the
source) I, on the other hand, am at 17 feet above sea level and about
500 feet from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean.
-----------------------------------------------

I am 500 or so Km from the Atlantic, but only about 60 metres above sea level,
and some 30 metres above the Ottawa River. The river might become navigable by
seagoing vessels up to at least Hawkesbury if we were to get those 6 metres of
sea level-rise they're are talking about.
