Just out of morbid curiousity, Traveler, you do realize that ice has a far greater volume than a comparable volume of water, don't you?
If anything, the water from all this horrible melting will occupy less space than the ice presently there.[/b]

Thank you for reading my post and making an effort to help me understand. However, the ice (3 miles thick) at the South Pole is on land and if it melts will not remain on the land but run into the ocean. You would have been correct if we were talking about the ice at the North Pole.
