Online Gambling Site Accepting Bets on Hatteras' Future
On an offbeat note, we found an odd story that caught our eye we thought we'd share. An online gambling website has started accepting bets on whether or not global warming will submerge Cape Hatteras by 2015. Although we all know Cape Hatteras is seriously threatened by global warming, the 2015 date far exceeds the expectations of even the wildest scientific predictions. Perhaps that's why the line is at 300 to 1. Virginia's Cape Henry is also open for betting - but only at 200 to 1 for the same conditions and date. The company reports that thousands of folks have already put down bets - here's to hoping that they are truly wasting their money. More on the global warming bets is available from the Virginia Pilot.
