Wonder how it feels like to stand on that deck, not at least the sound it probably makes as well. Impressive. But i don't like the thought of a nuclear driven vehicle roaming around in the last areas of untouched wilderness...

Now that is class! Arrive at the North Pole in a Shirt and Tie! Trust the Russians to think of that one!

Those scientists stuck in the Antarctic ice could have used this ship.

We keep lamenting that we keep loosing ice. But doesn't those ships who brake ice make the melting process a lot easier?

i see what you mean, but you can compare it to an earthworm on a football field. That one single worm won't make any difference what so ever, but sure, a million of them might.

#1 You say "But i don't like the thought of a nuclear driven vehicle roaming around in the last areas of untouched wilderness..."
"Untouched"? Maybe you were not listening @ 3:55 when he said the Russians had been using the Arctic as their personal nuclear waste dumping grounds for many years and the entire area is contaminated. Nuclear subs and ships were sunk with reactors intact where they now sit leaking into the sea. Many tons of radioactive waste was dumped in the Barents and Kara seas.

you are totally right, i wasn't listening to it at all, i was listening to music. But ok, you reacted to the part where i used the word "untouched". Bear in mind that not all users have english as the native languge. Hence words can mean different things when translated. In this case, i should have used the words "visually untouched", that would be more accurate and maybe it would make more sense.
That said, even tho you would be right, (which you are about the facts) would that change my feelings about having nuclear vehicles roaming around?
