One answer is that the flood narative is written in common language. It is not a scientific report and that it in fact describes a local flood. Personally I think there is a good chance this is true (though vastly exagerated).
I tend to like that solution as it upsets Fundies and radical athiests about equally.
Yes, I would agree. There is strong internal evidence that it is only describing a local event.
