How many consider the fact that bacteria can live in
freezing conditions and we are changing the ratio
of the different types of bacteria.
http://www.greenpeace.org/~comms/97/arctic/library/region/toxic.html
after reading the information in this link think of
a basic kids experiment
has anyone on the list experimented with the
salt, string, ice cube trick?
Now think of these chemicals settling through
the permafrost and effecting the bacteria
Which then warm up.

Any person can stand adversity,
The true test is to give a person power.
If you treat a relationship as if you are the only one in it, eventually
you will be.
Atrocities happen when the people about you -
start considering you surplus.
"I tolerate with the utmost latitude the right of
others to differ from me in opinion"
---- Thomas Jefferson
My Grandfather told me there are two kinds of people:
those who do the work and
those who take the credit.
He told me to be in the first group -
there is less competition there. -
