I just read "Mind over Matter" by Ranulph Fiennes and it is about his unsupported journey on foot across Antarctica. Anyone who for a second would believe that there is a city under that ice is simply woefully misinformed. Mirages are common at the poles, and no evidence exists of an entire city- in fact, man cannot live there for more than a few SECONDS without insane protection. Its a spacescape and that to me is far more interesting than groundless speculation on hidden cities.
Ya know, even if they did find something extraordinary there, they would not legally be allowed to reveal this to the public. There is a law on the books that deals with releasing news or information that has the potential to cause a mass panic.
DO please tell us this "law".
Scientists are a tough group to keep shut. They communicate with one another constantly, they are the most inquisitive people on earth and if there was genuine evidence they would be the first to be screaming. That is their nature. There is NO law on the books for anything of this sort.
Granted, I believe in a number of things for which the evidence is questionable, but it really makes me angry when people believe anything under the sun. It wastes valuable time that could be spent investigating that small number of true mysteries in the world and discredits those who have genuine interest in such things.
There is also the more recent occasion when I believe it was John Kerry, or Al Gore, saying there was something dangerous in Antarctica, cant recall the exact details of this, but remember reading about it.
I do not believe in the inner earth theory, but I do believe there may be something there that they do want the public to know about.
Not to get political but once I see Al Gore or John Kerry, I smell fiction. I'm outta this thread.
Author H.P. Lovecraft, a man who was known to faint when the temperature fell below 40, wrote "At the Mountains of Madness," a supposedly fictional account of a prehuman civilization in Antarctica. Lovecraft neither drank nor smoked and ate the simplest foods, but he died of stomach cancer at the age of 47.
I'm envisioning the Buzz Aldrin exchange:
"Buzz we want you to look at these things and tell us if they the same things you saw on the lunar landscape?"
or "was this the same craft you told us about that we made you swear to not speak about to public?"

BTW - the Hairy-Chested Yeti crab (Kiwa tyleri) is a pretty cool critter found down there.
They must be tiny.
