>Who is right? That reminds me, has anybody tried to do the math on climate change ? The main effect is (probably?) going to be the thermal expansion of the worlds oceans. I did a quick back of the envelope calculation modeling the earth as a sphere radius 6367 km, covered by a 4 km thick shell of water. Increasing the thickness of the water by one meter but retaining its mass, I get a realtive change in angular momentum of 6e-11 which is in the order of a millisecond per year. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 p...@freebsd.org | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
