Likely the biggest human-linked animal loser would be housecats. Those which didn't starve inside would likely not last long in the wild. Recall reading someplace the average lifespan of a cat dropped off in the country is something like six weeks. They make a nice snack for coyotes.

Well, I liked it, was kinda fun watching someone else's "what ifs".
After all isn't that what everyone is trying to do what with the "Prepping and all".

I can see someone with their 10000 role of TP and 1,000,000 rounds of ammo, saying "Oh smitt, I didn't think of that!" (what ever it may be).

Besides it beats the carp out of most everything on the tube, what with the Gladiators and all.
Gonna be on again Wed at 8:00 Pm central, maybe watch it again.

We started watching it but turned it off after only 20 mins., went back later but turned it off again. I thought it was silly. Just a show to show-off graphics.

I was expecting a bit more. Maybe in the future they will have a better program.

Besides, once the polar caps melt totally the weight differential will prevail and the Earth will shift on it's axis.

Drowning that which is now dry and drying what was previously immersed.

End of problem.

Mid Indiana was once a shallow sea.

get your boats ready.

Seen WaterWorld?

Crummy movie, interesting thought...

I was about to make a sticky note for myself (and a mental note NOT to let my 10 year old professional worry-wart of a daughter watch)....and then I remembered I don't have cable!

Wel...maybe I can find it at the library in a year or so...
