Here's our chance to discover new worlds!

Another upside of global warming. If you wanna play Christopher Columbus, now's as good a time as any!

From http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/16/science/earth/16gree.html?em&ex=1169182800&en=80fa9bf627117422&ei=5087%0A

“It feels a little like the days of the old explorers, doesn’t it?” Dennis Schmitt said.

Mr. Schmitt, a 60-year-old explorer from Berkeley, Calif., had just landed on a newly revealed island 400 miles north of the Arctic Circle in eastern Greenland. It was a moment of triumph: he had discovered the island on an ocean voyage in September 2005. Now, a year later, he and a small expedition team had returned to spend a week climbing peaks, crossing treacherous glaciers and documenting animal and plant life.

Or perhaps you could start your own breakfast condiments company: Bottie's Jelly.

Hell, it sounds better that "Smuckers."

This thread may actually devolve into a three word story at the rate it's going.
