RE: UN Ship Nomenclature

Better than that, follow this link
http://www.emporia.edu/earthsci/gage/glacier7.htm to a page of LandSat7
glaciers that have bee disignated for study - lots of Glaciers from
around
the world (I never knew there was a glacier in Bolivia).  Also a link to
an
inventory of Eurasian Glaciers - should have more than enough names for
you.

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...
