From a friend of mine.. 
Quote:
Related: Last summer, I loosely followed the story about a search team who were taking a ship though the Northwest Passage (much of the ice had melted). They had two goals: 1) get through the passage. 2) research the wreck of a ship that went through in 1848
When the news was interviewing the head of this search team, the News Anchor was trying to make the story focus on the Arctic ice melting, “never happened in the history of the world, global warming, etc, etc” The head of the search team, said “Well, we are going after a ship that went through the passage 160 years ago, thus the passage was melted at that time as well”. Fun to see the News Anchor with slack jaw and dumbfounded look…
