The problem with a world-wide flood is... the water.
If all the ice-caps melted, there still would not be enough water to cover the entire surface.
Even if there were that much water... where did it all go?
Is there some drain somewhere that allowed it all to flow away?
Perhaps massive tsunamis could happen that might roll across the planet, but covering the Himalayas is a difficult task.
Localized flooding in any region has definitely happened, but a single flood that covered the entire planet seems a bit... fishy.
Just an FYI.
Galileo was not killed. He was just placed under house arrest for the remainder of his life (which was several years).

I stand firmly by the term Duck Tape, especially since I used capital letters.
I know I should have used the lovely trademark symbol, but I didn't feel like looking it up.

Prince had his name changed to a symbol that wasn't even punctuation, or pronounceable.
So... I would say that yes, it is legally possible.

40 below is 40 below.
It is the one temperature that is the same in both Celsius and Fahrenheit.

FYI, here's a wikipedia link on the distinctions/derivations of duck vs duct tape. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_tape#Etymology
I prefer duck tape, since you should not use it on ductwork, and that's what MacGyver called it.
Umm... you forgot about Duck Tape. How could you forget about Duck Tape?
