notbatman,
I am traveling to Antarctica next week. I will be there for several days. Is there any evidence supporting FE that you would like me to gather or are there any experiments that you would like me to run?
You could check if Lake Vostok is still 38° Fahrenheit or if global warming made it suitable for bikini girls.

Must be the global warming moving the ice barrier 50km south in 60 years
*
Observations indicated that the Barrier edge had moved some 30 statute miles (50 km) south since Ross's time, which meant that the ship were already south of Ross's record.
Borchgrevink was determined to make a landing on the Barrier itself, and in the vicinity of Ross's inlet he found a spot where the ice sloped sufficiently to suggest that a landing was possible.
On 16 February he, Colbeck and Savio landed with dogs and a sledge, ascended to the Barrier surface, and then journeyed a few miles south to a point which they calculated as 78°50′S, a new Farthest South record
Almost sailed to 80° south in "Ross sea".
