If most people have no idea where Wyoming is, how can they be expected to find Greenland?

Why is Greenland important?

I know where both are and they are both important. I agree in a way though, as i was in nebraska and no one there knew where New Hampshire was. I was afraid to say near Boston or New York.

Hmmm, sea level rise of 6 ft. I'm at 8 ft. I would have waterfront rather than waterview with intervening property. Million dollar club here I come.

LOL joe, I walked into a mom and pop burger joint out just east of Ash Fall weighing in at 155 pounds soakin wet with hairs half way down my back and the local crew were guys 6 times my size and they all stopped talkin' and stared at me.

I made a joke about the irrigation and the grass corn fields calling these guys weathy men and one of then thankfully got the joke. I was about to be made into minced meat! Sartin'
Then they took me for a English man.....

Would you mention Boston or NYC to men like that?

The fact I was dressed in all black biker gear didn't help, and not even my wife who has hair and a black leathers was any help.

About the time all them fellers were laughin' the cops walked in, took a look at me, looked at all of them shrugged their shoulders and walked out..

I was mutterin I am saved under my breath for the rest of the afternoon man...

"never happened before"


How did it get the name "greenland"?

I'm pretty sure that the recorded history of weather and Greenland for that matter is a tiny bit of 1 percentage point of the age of the world.

Maybe you should read the article, because it quotes this..

"...an actual peer reviewed scientific publication."

So, which part of "Inter-Glacial Warming Period" do you not understand?

Laughing at the superior intellect...
