P.S. Are you from the coastal lands?

After watching Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, i went into digging for my stack of newspaper cuttings i made when i was in India early this year.
What had seemed so far-fetched and incredulously imminent to me from that article suddenly became alot more real to me now...so the source could be from as far away as Greenland?!

All i know is, when this happens, my tiny island of a home situated 1 deg north of the Equator won't stand a chance.

I said this to my european brother-in-law who's thinking of settling down his family in Singapore recently: "Ya, its certainly a great place to live - nice tropics, good food, conducive environment....but hey, there may be a mass migration happening in the near future for us...you might want to take that into account..."

Now...is it just me, or does that conversation sound kinda a crazy to you??
