Thanks for the confirmation, Mike.

I did say 200 feet. Well, others were sayng 200 if all the ice in Antarctica melted. I looked up the total volume of ice and the surface area of oceans on the planet and did the math. I came up with 89 meters. I think it equates to around 290 feet or so. I wrote about it in post #26.

Check the math if you want, but I think I did it correctly. I also don't have access to topographical maps to figure out the increase in ocean surface area if the water level increases.

Where did you get 4 meters for the Antarctica melt from?

Yeah, I think a vodka and ice is in my very near future...
