   That’s impossible because Al Gore said the recent flooding had NEVER happened before!

   I don’t know if I want to live in a place that the mind inside the head of James Hansen says is safe. It’s something to do with the creepy look he always seems to accomplish.

   Steve,

   You need a geography lesson. The cyclone/flood described above hit East Pakistan, now Bangladesh. The flood last summer occurred in Pakistan, then called Wast Pakistan. The two are separated by more than a thousand miles of Indian territory.

   By the way, my greatest fear is that as the world cools, densly populated and low lying Bangladesh will once again be hit by cyclones as it was in the late sixties and early seventies.
