Seems that Scientific American agrees with your assessment:

I used the search string "thermal expansion vs ice melt impact on sea level rise" and came up with some good hits.

Tip of the hat to Mr. Duffy as well - absolutely correct that thermal expansion plays a not insignificant role in sea level rise (approx. 1.1 mm rise out of 3.2 mm net avg rise/yr according to the linked article above).

I'm not too familiar with guns, and even I cringe listening to reporters talking about them. It's like listening to a grandma trying to speak jive, although this lady pulls it off quite nicely:

Long Chile was a silly place.

That's an awesome scene!

Leave it to you to not know who that lady is.

"Politics is just show business for ugly people."

Had to Google it. She seemed vaguely familiar, but I want sure where from.

She was famous for starring in a show that ended when I was 4 years old, and we didn't have a TV until I was 8.

Shall I get off your lawn now, old geezer?

She was a hottie back in the day, Ted Kaczinski. ;-)

That's the guy who played Beaver, right??

Long Chile was a silly place.

And that black guy pilot who was pretty good at basketball? It's not just your mis-identification of Beaver's Mom in a cameo role, it's your not being aware that Airplane! was chocked-full of cameos.

I know who Kareem Abdul jabar, the co-pilot, is.
I've seen that movie probably a dozen times. I probably don't know some of the cameos but know quite a few.
