Al Gore told me that global warming was causing the arctic ice cap to

Last night I mixed a drink in a tall glass with lots of ice. I left it
sit too long and the ice melted but the glass did NOT overflow. In fact
the liquid level was the same!
What's wrong here? (besides ruining a perfectly good drink)
Thanks
