The sea level is not going to rise as much as 45.7 metres.
Just because it's highly unlikely doesn't mean it's not an interesting thought experiment.

Your memory serves you well, the aluminium cans did not take off until the late 70's early 80's when the technology needed to recycle them was invented.
Disclosure: one of the inventors on that patent is my father, his other research was in solar panels, ocean thermal engery (otec), the aluminum air battery , the use of adhesively bonded aluminum structures such as the Jaguar XJ and hybrid diesel electric vehicles.
Oh I don't know, that was one of the best flame bait comments I've seen in a while. It was damn near poetic.
Some time between now and November 2016, I would like to see one article about Africa that doesn't have a comment from some mouth-breather emoting all over the page about Obama.
Is that really too much to ask.
I am sick up to here of the bullshit.
Swing and a miss.
I vote Liberal, I call myself a socialist, I sent my kids to private school and I probably make more than you.
Congratulations, you won todays "Race to the Bottom", your prize of a fetid pile of turds can be collected from your local Republitard office.

Polling strikes back.

So telling someone to suck it up is a valid response now.
If I told women to suck it up that they didn't get a job they were qualified for people would jump down my thought to call me a misogynist. Grow up you aren't special and you should be judged based upon your ability to perform, not what sex or skin color you are.
The "system" has been discriminating against women for a long, long time. So now people are doing something about it and assholes like you get in the way and play the victim.
Well fuck you, and fuck your attitude.
Have you seen what most chess players look like? Left out the "naked' on purpose.
I like big chess and I cannot lie.
Good, those costumes aren't the least bit sexist. (And if you can't tell this is sarcasm I suggest you check out the costumes.)
Good job Australia, nice to see you keeping your end up and your standards low.
Suck it up princess.
No true Englishman would use a teabag.

Which is why they need a book.
Is this so hard to understand? They're in over their heads and they need a hand.
The network is part of the system.
SAs had better understand networking, I don't expect/demand Cisco certs, but basic understanding of networking is a requirement of the job.
I deal with systems administrators of large corporations on a daily basis, there are lots of really excellent administrators who really know their stuff and frequently teach me something when we interact.
However, and unfortunately, there is also a significant group who don't know TCP from UDP (etc.). This is the group this book is for.
As someone who read the first book when it came out 19 years ago, (and most of the subsequent ones... I eventually gave up) I have trouble sitting through more than a single episode.
However, I'm told that the problem I have with the books declining quality was significantly less of an issue with the series.
