(sort of?for now, anyway) – Researchers say that ocean levels will definitely rise during the next 100 years, but they’re not likely to rise more than 7 feet. This would still be high enough to flood most coastal cities around the world. Is this good news or bad news?

In BBC News, Richard Black quotes USGS researcher Shad O?Neel as saying, “Even a sea level rise of 8 inches in a century will have quite dramatic implications.

Here, Tessa Dick, Philip K. Dick’s wife shares her reminiscences of some of his experiences, including journeys through time that are startlingly similar to some Whitley has described.

This is an altogether fascinating look into the life of a remarkable visionary and experiencer who lived at the far edge of reality–just like the man doing the interview, Whitley Strieber.
