oh noes, the sea level's rising...more

With just a smidge of help.
The University of Colorado's Sea Level Research Group is monitoring... the sea level.
Something about that seems so non sequitur. U of Colorado? Miami maybe, seeing as the sea is in their backyard.
Maybe not:
As Fox reports:
"Many global warming alarmists say that vast stretches of coastline are going to be swallowed up by the sea. Well, that means we should be talking about sea level, not about global water volume."
"Steve Nerem, the director of the widely relied-upon research center, told FoxNews.com that his group added the 0.3 millimeters per year to the actual sea level measurements because land masses, still rebounding from the ice age, are rising and increasing the amount of water that oceans can hold."
[insert quizzical dog look here]

This is really to
fulfill a predetermined political narrative isn't it? Isn't it?
Yes.
I thought so.

    I made an edit there. For accuracy.
