Watch out New Jersey!!

I've been saying this for a few years now, about how global warming can't be ALL bad, because the rise of sea level will result in the beach coming to Philadelphia's doorstep! (Albeit, at the expense of New Jersey...)

Anyway, it's finally out in the public now - scientists (well, one former professor) are saying that by 2050 the water level will be so high that New Jersey will be swallowed and Philadelphia will need extra high walls to protect it from the Delaware. So much for the beach...

Apparently we Philadelphians will also be free of traffic jams on the Schuylkill because robots will be driving our cars. Looks exciting.
