The other was that Canadian scientists studying the effect of climate change on Arctic ice from an icebreaker had to suspend their research, when their vessel was called to the aid of other ships trapped in the thickest summer ice seen in Hudson Bay for 20 years.

And as long as we’re solving problems, let’s start working on those pesky female body-type issues.  BYOB.  Bring your own Barbie.
