The glacier eventually withdrew from the area....

Did the glacier simply get up and leave - i.e. withdraw like the Dims want us to do in Iraq? No. OK, that means it MELTED. More than 160,000 years ago. Before cars, coal fired power plants, SUVs and even Chimpie McBushitler, Shotgun Cheney and Halliburton. How is that possible?

What is being done to reconstruct the damaged farmland and wetlands??? What is being done to compensate the families of those who were killed and displaced by this disaster??? Another example of how Bush’s War on Terror is sapping desperately needed funds from HUMAN NEEDS!!!

The first French-bashing jokes began to appear roughly 24 hours later...

My ancestors from the British Islands were Picts. Is there some sort of casino I can open on the Isle of Wight as compensation?

So....perhaps we should return Brittany to the English as apparently they owned it at one time.

How many Frenchmen does it take to change a light bulb?
One. He holds the bulb and all of Europe revolves around him.

An old saying: Raise your right hand if you like the French.... Raise both hands if you are French.

Evidence of a giant flood at the Black Sea. Evidence of a giant flood creating the English channel. ACLU crowd is going to start getting upset.

The natural disaster, which occurred about 400,000 years ago during a glacial period, was later followed by rising sea levels that created what is now the English Channel, the study says.

Looks like one of many "global warmings" in our planet's history, where were Neanderthal libs to prevent it?

English owned more than just Brittany, they ran the whole of France at one time

Well, all megafloods are fascinating.

The Missoula floods in the northwest US.
The flood that created the Mediterranean.
The flood that lowered the Black Sea.

These are the ones that come to mind off the top of my head.

Ugga, me think mastadon flatulence cause big methane cloud in clear air. Much heat from sun trapped by gas. Must switch to vegan diet.

And thus began the Neandrathal races slow decline, steadily pushed back by environmental rapist homo sapien meat eaters. Ugga Gore continued to eat meat however and eventually married a homo sapien woman who admired his cave drawings of carbon offsets.
