i think that now there no question about Al Gore being right since the beginning.
if you think that is was wrong, i suppose that you havent open your eyes on what happening around the world.
and this is only the beginning.
what is frigtening is that there is still some people like you thinking that way.
and this is not a good thing for the earth ,us and our children.

to come back to the original question...
i have no prove(but will investigate) if the tectonic plate are moving faster because of the icecap melting..
but i have thought about it since a long time, and i was surprise to see that i am not the only one.
i think everything is related.
from our pollution to icecapmelting and sismic evolution ...
this is all due to global warming.
and to finish, just knowing that the last earthquake in chillie has moved the earth axis, make me think a lot...
even if that axis hasent move a lot, we have to start thinkng and acte now on this issue, because, it might be already to late...
