  • 30,000,000 years ago? LOL. Shows these guys don't know anything. They are beginning with preconditioned biases. Hey, guys, the Earth is only about 6000 years old. Anyone with even half a brain knows that.

  • It'd be great if they found a city down there...

    but I'd say they checkin' for oil!

    and ha!

    The Russians discovered The Gamburtsevs but -

    The group going for this comprises scientists, engineers, pilots and support staff from the UK, the US, Germany, Australia, China and Japan

    "fuck off and stick to The North Pole, Ivan!"

    Sounds pretty exciting all the same...

    Besta luck to 'em!
