Research From Earth's Least Accessable Frontier

ImaLamer writes: "The BBC News is reporting that researchers have found some interesting things in one of the 'least explored' areas of the Earth. From the article: 'For good reason, the Gakkel Ridge is one of the least explored places on our world. It extends over 1,500 kilometres (930 miles) through the Eurasian Basin of the Arctic Ocean, from north of Greenland to the Laptev Sea off Siberia.' It seems they eclipsed past work by 20 years and are very excited [and suprised] by the amount of new organisims found. They also hope to answer whether lifeforms evolving in the Arctic area is the same or related to lifeforms in the other oceans."

One Thing Leads to Another

[The Lyrics Guy]

The Fixx - One Thing Leads to Another

The deception with tact, just what are you trying to say?
You've got a blank face, which irritates
Communicate, pull out your party piece
you see dimensions in two
State your case with black or white
But when one little cross leads to shots, grit your teeth
You run for cover so discreet, why don't they:

Do what they say, say what you mean
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another

The impression that you sell
Passes in and out like a scent
But the lung face that ynu see comes from living close to your fears
If this is up then I'm up but you're running out of sight
You've seen your name on the walls
And when one little bump leads to shock miss a beat
You run for cover and there's heat, why don't they:

Do what they say, say what they mean
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another.
One thing leads to another

Then it's easy to believe
Somebody's been lying to me
But when the wrong word goes in the right ear
I know why you've been lying to me
It's getting rough, off the cuff I've got to say enough's enough

Bigger the harder he falls
But when the wrong antidote is like a bulge on the throat
You run for cover in the heat why don't they

Do what they say, say what they mean
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another
One thing leads to another (repeat)

Hrm?

I submitted this story, it got accepted.

Then I look all over and it's NOT on the front page.

Personally, I think this is cooler than measuring the distance to the moon, considering we've done that.
