That's true enough. The ports of Stockton and Sacramento
are both quite a distance from the coast. But they ARE
nearly at sea level, which is the part that will bite them
if sea level rises or falls.

Ooh, Stocton 15', Sacto 54'. Stockton will definitely feel a
tsunami. And in a few hundred years, maybe the effects of the
horrible Global Warming thing.
