Miskatonic University must really be pulling in the international students these days.

They’re only 6,000 years old.

“...2.5-mile thick ice...”

####

According to current Climate Change “science”, if I drive my 400HP, 8 cylinder SUV the 15 miles home from work tonight at about 70 MPH, I ought to be able to melt a good 7 or 8 miles of that.

What say?

[Flycatcher]

And good news:

This 2.5 mile-thick ice shelf will be melted in five years, so we'll be able to see this amazing mountain range!

Can't wait.

Antarctica, bigger than the United States, has been swathed in ice for about 35 million years, and contains enough of it to raise world sea levels by about 57 metres if it ever all melted

Fear mongering statements like that are just as idiotic as stating how much the world would explode if every ounce of uranium on earth ever reached critical mass simultaneously.

[BenLurkin]

Can’t be. Cuz the ice down there is like all melted and stuff.

[He who knoweth not his name]

What are we waiting for...lets dropblast the range so we can see it NOW!! We`re doomed anyway.

“Unless we have a basic understanding of how ice sheets work, any sort of predictive model won’t match reality,” Ferraccioli said.

Why? It's never stopped global warming scientists before.

Not such a mystery if you accept the lore of the ancients about past earth catastrophes and what caused them

[autumnraine]

“Jagged mountains the size of the Alps have been found entombed in Antarctica’s ice, giving new clues about the vast ice sheet that will raise world sea levels if even a fraction of it melts, scientists said.”

Well then, these scientists are idiots.

Fill a glass nearly full with water. Add enough ice cubes to float above the lip of the glass. Leave it out and watch to see if it overflows the glass when it melts.

Shifting of Earth’s magnetic poles, ancient Vedic cities, the mountains of madness, varunas, underground seas, civilizations so old.......

[jesseam]

In five years when all the ice melts they would be a great place to hike and ski. I can’t wait to make reservations for the first resort. Heck real estate would be a good investment.

Interesting -there is theory that Antarctica is Atlantis.

At the south pole which way is east? To my right if I face north. What if I turn 90 degrees, is east still on my right? And how do I know I’m facing north, cause if I turn around I’m still facing north. Is this a Grenwich thing?

“But the presence of jagged peaks might mean the ice formed quickly, burying a landscape under up to 4 km of ice.”

What kind of sudden flood could cause that?
