I don't expect I will be teaching much longer at UCSB. Retirement approaches. Maybe it's a good time to be leaving, before the flood, as it were. Though really I would prefer to go more on an up note.

What you call them, however, is not as important as the rapidity with which whatever-they-are have risen.
