The funny part of this is that in fact the title may be correct. That is, it might actually be sinking. The level of the oceans may be constant but landmasses are constantly raising and lowering. The planet is like a big brown paper bag of molasses. The surface is not as solid as it feels to us.

If this island in the Pacific is sinking won’t other islands-say Alcatraz-other feel the same? Doesn’t the water find it’s own way? What do I know?
To: cuban leaf
Then they should move to a new island like their ancestors did..............

I just ran that guy’s statement through my Jonny Quest decoder ring. Here’s what came out: “We want money, lots of money.”

So which is it? Is the island sinking or the sea level rising?
