Scientists have discovered a frozen underworld beneath the ice sheet covering northern Greenland.
The previously unknown landscape, a vast expanse of warped shapes including some as tall as a Manhattan skyscraper, was found using ice-penetrating radar loaded aboard Nasa survey flights.
The findings and the first images of the frozen world more than a mile below the surface of the ice sheet are published on Sunday in the journal Nature Geoscience.

Until recently, scientists studying the Greenland ice sheet for evidence of change under global warming had thought the shapes they discerned beneath the ice sheet were mountain ranges.

Ice? More ice? What is the world coming to?
Topo of Greenland bedrock.
When if the ice melts, there will be a lake that will rival the worlds largest lakes, and it will retain the majority of the melt due to volumetric contraction and Isostatic Rebound.
Similar discoveries of massive canyons and basins have been made under Antarctica recently as well. Too bad, so sad for the doom and gloomers.
Or a lost Viking skyscraper-city.
Contrary to popular belief the dictionary is your friend..... and wether you are professing to chastise another, your: " And we each haZ our own personal truths too."
Although well said and misspelled, being a critical carbon unit and failing at it, is all the much worse, than just being ignorant.
Actually there is something worse. Not recognizing sarcasm and mockery.
If you look in a regular dictionary, you would mistakenly believe that the word “haZ” is not in fact, a word. But if you look in the Cheezbyrger.com dictionary of internet cat speak, from which the word was taken, you would see that ‘haZ” is in fact the correct spelling, including capitalization of the Z at the end.
In context, the word haZ ‘has’ many applications. In a question, usage would be “I can haZ a cheezeburger?” As a declarative statement, it would be “I haZ a sad.”
Often the question form is answered by the phrase, “No you stupid cat, you cannot haZ a cheezeburger” which then causes the cat to declare that he ‘haZ a sad.”
In the context of my post it was used in the declarative, recognizing the liberal desire to avoid reality to ‘haZ” thuths which are in fact fantasies, much like the idea of a talking cat and dictionaries of their language.
As such, use of nonsense words when dealing with liberals and liberal subjects is most often called ‘sarcasm’, which can in fact, be found in the dictionary you mentioned. You might find the definition interesting ;)
Thanks Up Yours Marxists.
A loud cry of “Stay out of my land, overlanders!!!” is heard
Winter is Coming.
It only took 50 or more years to bury some WWII planes under more than 200 ft of ice!http://www.nytimes.com/1988/08/04/us/world-war-ii-planes-found-in-greenland-in-ice-260-feet-deep.html
Mmmmm . . . cheezburger.
