All this science talk confuses me, but I did read a few days ago that Russia has reopened some of it's Siberian Naval bases and is in the process of rebuilding it's Arctic Fleet. They just completed a nuclear powered ice breaker and the fleet already has 5 or six surface combatants.

Also, I think it was a year or two a Russian sub planted the Russian flag at the North Pole on the ocean floor. I know Canada is none to pleased about these developments.

Can't find the link right now.
