Interesting that you should mention Finland and that no meteorite have been found that way. Bjurböle is a name that pops up whenever I hear about mysterious holes in ice. http://www.somerikko.net/old/geo/met/mbjurb_e.htm But I agree, this one doesn't really sounds like a meteorite and is

The Beagle 2 lander is still missing. Could it be the British Beagle 2 lander returned to earth, only to land in a manmade pond in New Hampshire, USA? Gary, let us know if you see a metal arm sticking out of the ice hole, waving around, as the other end is stuck in the mud, desperately
