Dear Adam and List,

Yes, you are right that "desert has been easily outperforming Antarctica".
But why? That was the question actually...
What will happened if you will have enough money to send 100 Moroccans
to search the ice for one month? ;-)

Bernd, can you estimate it, please? ;-)

Nothing against - just wondering...

Good night (morning) and all the best,
Sergey
