Your Say
And you know of course how those great lakes got there, right? Something about several hundreds of feet thick glaciers gouged them out. And now you know how the ice got there. Just had some bad winters, with some equally cool springs and summers. Altough they say, the ice started from the Columbia Ice Cap over by Banff. Couldn't happen to a couple of nicer places: Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukee, Madison.

JAF - Nah. They would all just move to the South (or back to the South as the case may be).

Umm - JAF? I live in Lansing; so...could you stop cheering for the ice already?
