Well I suppose it's something to do when you're sitting two-thirds submerged in freezing cold water.......

"“It’s like something from a horror film,” says Vera Schlindwein, a geophysicist at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Germany. The songs can vary, from resembling bees buzzing to something more melodic, like a string orchestra, she says."

Very interesting. The story featured in our local paper a few days ago. Let us not forget that when the wind whistles the thunder claps! Been to blog lately?

I was wondering if the iceberg sang to the Titanic. Blogging is having to sqeeze into very small windows at the moment but I am hoping to catch up with my regular reading soon!
