This quote sparked some some interesting weekend reading:

"Piri Reis 16th century Turkish Admiral's Map - 1531 A.D. accurately shows the topography of northern Antarctica (now covered by mile-high ice)...we didn't have ground penetrating radar until 1958... Check to see the last time Antarctica was not covered by ice and now you have found a mystery."
