It seems that 70% water is really not that much!

Our COBE gave our talk yesterday and he touched on the subject of water which was very interesting. That only about 3% of the surface water is fresh, and of that 3% only .01 of it is freely available ... the rest being locked up in glaciers and ice.

 

Should have read you link BEFORE posting ... he probably read that too.
