THAT was my original contention moron. A dark substance absorbs radiant HEAT, more so than the surrounding ICE would. See my post #29. Also, WEIGHT can cause compressive HEAT which increase local thermoplasticity.
You can continue to argue against Newton, I just don't have the time.
As for using the whole Greenland Airplane under Ice to support your Young Earth theory of Biblical accuracy, here's some more flat earth stuff for you...
Blah, blah, blah. I got your message at the first "moron". Insults like that are the debate equivalent to the "click click" of an empty gun.
By the way, you might want to lay your Weston Master II (the III and later aren't black, you see) on the ice, and measure exactly how much light there is once it's under the ice. I'd be interested in your explanation of how a dark object can absorb enough light to melt the ice when the ice itself is thick enough to block the light.
But since you said you're done with me, I guess I won't ever find the answer. Boo hoo...
