When there are no glaciers or ice dams left, they won't be able to kill people.

At night, the ice weasels swim.

Everyone knows about the collapse of the ice dam downstream from where I am, right?

It was kind of a while ago.

Yes, it was 997 feet deep where I'm sitting right now.

That would have required about twice the capacity sump pump as I have now. The local dam/fishing spot back home failed just because of a big blizzard. Only one guy died, but proportionate to the number of people whose homes were flooded, I think that is probably greater than the floods in India.

The restrooms at the little bar/bait shop that was then run by the poor guy's parents had restrooms labeled 'De-cockus' and 'De-Bush.' Or it did in 1988.
