Ice

Could be the smallest topical title "ice"!

Posted prior, by an SCF member.

It still cracks me up when I look at it....

Totally! Rod.
Thanks.

Rafting sea Ice,
(poor design..I cannot make out just what is going on...)

1998 Canadian definitive stamp, an iceberg.



But turn it sideways, and you have a Ferengi from Star Trek.

Those rascals have probably bought up all the land under the ice cap in preparation for mining rights or off shore fishing rights. Oh no, maybe they bought all the ice and will be supplying all the fresh water in the future! Doomed, we're doomed I tell you!

Regard Ice Rafting there seem to be two geologic explanations foe the term.

One definition means ice floes riding up and over or interlocking with other ice floes.

Another from Answers.com is The transporting of rock and other minerals, of all sizes, on or within icebergs, ice floes, river drift, or other forms of floating ice.

Thanks Puzz,
I was assuming your first explanation.

One penguin talking to another penguin: 'I hear the Ferengi just bought some ice up North. We should talk to them. Maybe they have fish!'

It could be the smallest
but I am not coming back

Try searching for "Ice"....27 pages.

It does!? And that is asking it to just search in the titles.

It is finding advice, nice, notice, office, choice, price, etc.

Perhaps adding a word like cold ice or 'ice, icebergs, ice cubes, ice crystals, frozen water' will help. only one result for iceberg 'Striped Iceberg'.

That's right Puzz,
I tried "exact phrase", leaving a gap before ice etc
no luck.
Perhaps, like you said, it needs a "flag" to identify it in
the text of the thread.

I'll place ...Titleice here and try searching that when I post this

Bingo, found it in 3 seconds
perhaps "Threadice" would be more appropriate.

In 1898 the McGreely's Express provided local mail from Dyea to Skagway, Alaska. Dyea was located at the beginning of the Chilkoot trail into the gold fields. Although the stamp shows a dogsled the mail was transported the 5 miles by motorboat down the Taiya river and across the inlet to Skagway.
