"Why also should explorers find the inhospitable ice cliffs of the far north
covered in large areas with the red pollen of an unknown plant? And why
should they find the seeds of tropical plants floating in these waterswhen
they are not found in more southern waters? How should logs and branches of
trees, sometimes with fresh buds on them be found in these waters, all being
borne down by the warm currents from the north?
"Why should the northern parts of Greenland be the world's greatest habitat
of the mosquito, an insect which is only found in warm countries? How could
it have gotten to Greenland if it came from the south? Where do all the
foxes and bares go which are seen traveling north in Greenland? Where did
the bears go? Was it
possible that such large creatures as bears could find sustenance on plains
of eternal ice?

Dean , I feel we should focus lote more on the red pollen occurrence in Polar regions , that has even been highlighted before in this group . If someone can get convincing photos from the internet of this phenomena , we can have a strong case...what say ?

Sidhartha,
There was no opposition to the fact that Nansen scraped pollen off the snow in the high Arctic, there was dust at times, too, but he scraped off pollen, put it under the ship's microscope, and put it in his book Farthest North. And he was a professor of zoology in Norway. thatit is pollen is not denied.
And that pollen still shows up in northern Russia, blown out of the opening by the wind, and it falls with the snow.
It's just that the news outlets end up saying that it must have blown up from Central Asia, but no one saw it because Russia is empty in the middle; something like that. By extension, I imagine that anywhere you find pollen, they'll just say that it was blown there from somewhere else, at this altitude or the other.
To tell the truth, I think that we have proven most everything; it's just that we can't reach people and people don't bother to listen to us anyway.
The only thing left to do is to fly to the neck of the opening, take pictures, and then return without leaving your bones on the floor of The Arctic Ocean. I would like to see somebody pull that one off! Rod M. Cluff has been talking about it for 15 years.
But who knows, maybe we could trace the path of those icebergs with pollen on them, back to the opening or near it.
