I'm going to call BS on this obvious BS ...
to raise the level of the oceans just one foot you would need the area of Massachusetts and Connecticut combined and it would have to be 2.75 km high
200km X 200km X 2.75km ...
how big is that piece of ice?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76423614 The continental United States would easily fit in Antarctica and I have heard of ice a mile thick so plausible Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73841800 why plausible? how big is the glacier? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76423614 The end that dumps into the ocean is a hundred miles across. [ link to www.wired.com (secure)]
