Actually, NL would not become a part of the Atlantic Ocean, but a part of 
the North Sea (unless the sea level rises so much that the UK and Ireland 
completely disappear(*), and the North Sea itself becomes part of the 
Atlantic Ocean).

(*) Not everyone in Europe believes *that* would be a bad thing...

Guess we'll just have to build even higher dikes. BTW, if it wasn't for our 
dikes, about a third of the country would already be part of the North Sea.
