Mary,
There is that stone fort up in the Hudsons Bay that when it was built it
must have froze the mortar and now w/ global warming it is beginning to
melt. As I understand it each day before the crew goes across the river
to work on the fort the Polar Bear defense unit arrives at the site.
They don't want Canadian preservationeers to become lunch.
