Krugman on Gore

To the Editor:
Paul Krugman wrongly claims that Al Gore "keeps being right" ("The Gore Derangement Syndrome," October 15). Mr. Gore famously predicts that, over the next century, global warming will cause sea levels to rise by 20 feet. Scientists at the agency that shares Mr. Gore's Nobel prize, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, expect a rise of one foot.
