I doubt it, I think we are coming out of a long ice age.


Anyone here know how long it would take a sailor with the proper craft
to drift the whole ocean conveyor current from start to finish? Just

Right around 2000 years for one loop of the conveyor current that
starts just off greenland and ends up in the Pacific.
