But we were supposed to see 50 million people by 2010 driven from their homes by rising oceans. It was going to be Bye-bye Bahamas and So long, St. Lucia as the tourist havens were inundated with the frothing tides of melted glaciers all because of global warming. SAo said the United Nations.
So what's up with this?
Where are Peter, Paul and Mary when you need them, asking the musical quetion, "Where have all the refugees gone?"

Low-flow toilets appear to lack the ooomph to push things along through the sewer system. And now the people who pulled the punch from the flush are unhappy that bleach might have to be employed to clean up their mess.
Strangely, SF seems still to be intent on sending its effluent out into its famous bay. Kind of puts a different spin on ...
