Suckers Betting on Global Warming

I guess if you're stupid enough to believe Al Gore, you'd also be dumb enough to bet money on it.
NORFOLK, Va. -- Think global warming will raise the oceans enough to submerge Cape Hatteras? Want to bet on it?

An online gambling service has started taking bets on global warming, including whether it can submerge some of the East Coast's top vacation spots.

The odds that Virginia's Cape Henry will be under water by 2015 -- 200-to-1 at BetUs.com. Its odds for Cape Hatteras flooding by the same date -- 300-to-1.
Some of the dopes expect Manhattan to be submerged by 2011.

Good grief.
