Here is a short and simple explanation of glaciers and flow:

Any claims that glaciers exist, anywhere, with ice that is 40,000, and eeek, several hundred thousand years old can easily be eradicated through the mention of flow.

Which none of you have apparently heard of before, ain't that something...

It's impossible for glacial ice to be that old because glaciers are always advancing and/or retreating and ice melts both from the top down and the bottom up. Always, everywhere. Even in Antarctica, where believe it or not, there is unfrozen water beneath the glaciers, and unfrozen earth beneath the glaciers, and a very hot core at the center of the earth helping to make life possible even in very cold places. like Antarctica. Ever seen photos of those steam vents at the bottom of the ocean? Boiling hot water, hotter than boiling, miles and miles under the sea. Put there by God to melt glaciers.
