'It is an event so large that the best seat in the house is in space: a massive iceberg is on a collision course with a floating glacier near the McMurdo Research Station in Antarctica. NASA satellites have witnessed the 100-mile-long B-15A iceberg moving steadily towards the Drygalski Ice Tongue. Though the iceberg's pace has slowed in recent days, NASA scientists expect a collision to occur no later than January 15, 2005.'

It's all Bush's fault for not signing Kyoto. /sarcasm

Very cool. I looked at the picture and thought "that's so big it's like Long Island NY (where I grew up) crashing into Antarctica." Then I scrolled down and saw that they had had the exact same thought and superposed Long Island on the graphic!

hey, if ice breaks off and falls into the ocean - could it generate a tsunami?

"hey, if ice breaks off and falls into the ocean - could it generate a tsunami?" You bet.
At the end of the Ice Age...tsunami's were rampant from all the crashing ice.

The Iceberg is also compared to the size of Long Island, New York.
