| Snow Dragon icebreaker ship stuck in Global worming. |
| 2013-12-28 |
| [Daily Mail] The ice breaker sent out to rescue a tourist ship submerged in Antarctic ice since Christmas Day is stuck en-route to the vessel. Fishing very bad, send rice. The Chinese icebreaker Xue Long, or Snow Dragon, is six nautical miles away from the stranded Russian ship and may take another two days to reach it, its captain has said. The captain would not discuss the upcoming Chinese moon landing. Academic Shokalskiy, carrying 74 people, was recreating a 100-year-old Australasia expedition first sailed by Sir Douglas Mawson to see how the journey changes using new technology and equipment. I blame Windows 8.1 But on Wednesday morning, the boat hit a mass of thick ice sheets and today remains at a stand still. Now also in need of high-tech rescue. |

| #6 It's a good thing that the Mawson expedition didn't have that "man caused global warming" creating ice flows that blocked their travel. Mother nature can be a bitch. /s |

| #2 Take to the Ice! Build the sleighs, mind the dawgs and leave that damn cat behind. Prepare to make history the hard way. |
