Right, but I posted a few pages back that even if all ice on Earth converted to water, sealevel would only rise about 225 ft according to national geographic.
Well, that's meaningless, since the current school of thought is that the Earth was completely covered by a crust. Mountains, seas, canyons would not have existed. As the water trapped below the crust was heated by the core, it broke forth. Causing the separation of land masses, pushing the mountains up, and folding them on top of other layers, and also carving out the canyons.
225 feet would have easily flooded the existing Earth, and then immediately retreated into the canyons that were formed when the land masses shifted away from its origin.
