A number of years ago there was a polar expedition that was trying to find the northwest passage and in the middle of their journey they got trapped by ice buildup. It came at them fast, real fast, and they were stuck there for several years. Climate changes, fast.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-62190755517330638552008-07-02T07:08:00.000-07:002008-07-02T07:08:00.000-07:00I like the part about the ice going all the way to...I like the part about the ice going all the way to the bottom of the Arctic Ocean. That's a really big chunk of ice.<BR/><BR/>When I was a kid, I learned in school about the Northwest Passage. Guys like Henry Hudson were looking for it. Much earlier, Irish monks told of an ice free route across the north that had since closed up.<BR/><BR/>Currently, the Passage is believed to be a complex route through the Canadian archipelego. I think the idea when I was a kid is the right one, the Northwest Passage is across the open Arctic Ocean.Indigo Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17906787350123925867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-23325635273913488042008-07-02T05:53:00.000-07:002008-07-02T05:53:00.000-07:00Yep!

They don't deal with facts... they only deal with feelings. What a bunch of losers America has been raising! Whiny men like Al Gore who I suspect wouldn't know how to do a hard day of physical work if his life depended on it!Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02540710405153666843noreply@blogger.com
