Dr. Inverbon ignores the rarity of ice among the Mayans. The hirogyphic
instructions were engraved on some gold tablets much more common to Mayans
wearing chains. After arriving in Greenland these tablets unfortunately
quickly disapreared. Some think they were stolen by white men, some think
they were swallowed by an old Inuit to cure his arthritis, but I think they
just sank into the bottomless permafrost under ther own weight during the
spring thaw when nobody was looking. I'm beginning work on a metal detector
equiped undertundra vehicle now to begin the search for them to prove my
theory. A big question now is will the vehicle make detectable waves on the
surface of the tundra as it passes underneath.
