Gore's beachfront conundrum

There's a scene in Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" in which a computer-generated graphic depicts rising sea levels overtaking cities along the entire American seaboard.  Now compare that to an April 28 report from The Los Angeles Times:

"Former Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, have added a Montecito-area property to their real estate holdings, reports the Montecito Journal.  The couple spent $8,875,000 on an ocean-view villa on 1.5 acres with a swimming pool, spa and fountains, a real estate source familiar with the deal confirms. The Italian-style house has six fireplaces, five bedrooms and nine bathrooms."

Global warming is big business, and business is good.
