Would you go on an Alaskan cruise with me?

@dannys925 Really? What is it like? It is as awesome as the pictures look?

Yeah, some places around the world are beautiful, but a lot of things here seem spectacular. Too bad the valley of 10,000 smokes ran out of steam after a hundred year performance. But we have lots more volcanos anyway.

@dannys925 Now I want to see it even more so. Thank you.

You might want to get on it before all the good glaciers have melted, I'm only 20, and I can remembering them being a lot bigger.

@dannys925 They are melting fast then.

Yes, they call it being in "full retreat". Glacier Bay has melted back 17 miles almost into Canada now. Whether it's global warming or a normal cycle hypsathermal, they aren't like they were, and things continue to melt quickly. Since I'm a democrat, I think it's global warming. My father in law is a Republican, so he thinks its a routine climate cycle.
Science questions often find themselves with political answers.

@dannys925 That is sad they are melting. I want to see one before they are gone.
