The Russians Want to be Santa Claus!
I say we all reject it. The North Pole can't belong to a country of people who think that sinking a flag in a titanium capsule on the North Pole makes it theirs.

Bush's response will probably be to let them have it because all the ice will melt soon anyway if he has his way.
If simply setting a flag first in a location determines ownership, does that mean the US owns the moon?
We'll find that out when the Chinese or the Russians plant a flag on the moon.
Basically, the Russians are annoyed that nobody really gives a damn about them anymore. They're like the lonely kid on the playground that becomes a bully in order to have some communication with his peers. I hope my fellow Norwegians are giving this whole thing the attention it deserves, i.e. getting ready to make sure tyhat the Russians don't claim everything in arctic Europe.
