Tropical Antarctica

 
Think things are heating up now with global warming?  It may be time to start thinking of looking for a vacation home in Antarctica.  It is now believed that for most of the past 100 millions years Antarctica was a tropical paradise.  While it was once thought that the warm spell took place before the great while continent drifted to its current position at the south pole millions of years ago, scientists now think it may have been no more than 6000 years ago when the current deep freeze began setting in.  In fact, the 1513 Piri Reis map of Antarctica shows the coastline ice free.
