at night, the ice weasels come

http://blogs.dailymail.com/donsurber/200…

British yachtsman Adrian Flanagan is trying to prove global warming by sailing along the Northern Sea route…

He’s run into the same problem that sailors have run into for centuries: Ice…

It gets better. While he is waiting for the ice to melt, old Adrian is running into polar bears, who apparently 1.) are not nearing extinction and 2.) can swim. This may come as a shock to devout followers of the New York Times.

best comment:

I love when a person’s dogged pursuit of their own fanciful beliefs runs into – literally – cold, hard reality. And bears.

    This is almost as good as the Hippy that was going to “commune with nature” in Yellowstone..

    He “communed” from the inside of a Grizzly. :D

    Yeah, that’s a classic.
