Arctic Ice

The other night, my wife and I were playing dueling laptops in the bed and messing around with google earth. I was teaching her how to create her own maps, about the coordinate system, placemarks, etc. She was well on her way to becoming a geographical whiz, when I noticed something odd on google earth. Not one shred of ice was evident on the north pole. Now, I don’t know about you folks, but I remember back in school, the globes and maps had ice placed on both polar caps. The conspiracy nut inside of me said that the global warming nut jobs had infiltrated google and they were covertly putting out their propaganda to influence today’s tech generation.

Tonight however, I was browsing the Drudge Report and found this little morsel.

Ironic? Strange? Damn sure fascinating. An under educated redneck was able to see a change in the poles where the scientists of the world missed it? I wonder what else they’ve missed?
