I'd appreciate any glacier names anybody can come up with, just send 'em
to
me. I think I'll make one of the larger classes glaciers - maybe BCs.

Glaciers bring to mind images of Slow, Massive structures, Crushing
things
in their creeping path - sound like a SuperDreadnought to me. Anyway,
if
anyone is interested I could dig up some glacier names - Alaska seems to
have over half the glaciers in North America - fits really well with all
that tundra. Columbia, Portgage, Mendenhall, Matanuska, Knik, Yentna
and
Lacuna all spring readily to mind - but there are certainly lots more.
Unfortunately I cannot provide much info on Glaciers elsewhere, which
may
not seem very fair for the UN...
