Dave -

Original report now available for download from http://www.cryptome.com 
(Zipped PDF).

It's interesting the front page of the document says:

"We have interviewed leading climate change scientists, conducted 
additional research, and
reviewed several iterations of the scenario with these experts. The 
scientists support this
project, but caution that the scenario depicted is extreme in two 
fundamental ways. First,
they suggest the occurrences we outline would most likely happen in a 
few regions, rather
than on globally. Second, they say the magnitude of the event may be 
considerably smaller."

But somehow this caveat didn't make it into the media reports I saw.
