If this was not a real story, it would be a great joke -- The Government of the Maldives Will Meet . . . Underwater (Wearing Scuba Gear)
The New York Times reports today that Government Mininsters in the Maldives (the lowest-lying nation on earth) will hold a cabinet meeting underwater--wearing scuba gear--to highlight the dangers of global warming and rising sea levels. The meeting will take place on October 17, 2009.
