Dividends of Climate Change?

Somehow, this will probably be blamed on President Bush and Halliburton.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- The world's biggest iceberg has hit the end of an Antarctic glacier, snapping off a block about 5 square kilometers (3 square miles), a New Zealand scientist said Wednesday.

The giant iceberg, known as B15A, ran into the tip of the Drygalski Ice Tongue in "more of a nudge than a collision," said Lou Sanson, chief executive of the government scientific agency Antarctica New Zealand.

The clash between the 160-kilometer (100-mile) -long iceberg and the 70- kilometer (40-mile) -long glacier near McMurdo Station on the north Antarctic coast was first predicted by scientists in late December.

The collision was discovered by scientists reviewing satellite photos taken last weekend, Sanson told The Associated Press.

"That's the only record we've got of it," at this stage, he said.

Okie dokie.
