No current global warming. No link between CO2 and sea rises. No change
in same old post-ice age sea rise rate. Hence "drowned" coastlines
clearly not science. Must be "false science". Hence the term.

My problem, ass hole, is shit head spammers that post off topic cut and pastes from web sites that are arm waving speculation of doom and gloom.

In his book "Timaeus" in which Plato tells the story of Atlantis, the ancient Egyptian wise man in the story said that from the Egyptian archives of ancient knowledge they knew there were that there had been several great deluges on Earth, not just the one the Greeks knew of. (Probably one for each time a large asteroid had hit an ocean.) He said that those of the cities, where learning, culture, and records were kept, were killed, and those of less learning who lived high in the mountains were the only survivers. That was why all knowledge of previous history was lost, but still the humans carried on. Double-A
