I can’t remember where I read that as long as our continents are where they are in the Northern Hemisphere, all crowded around the north pole, we are stuck in cycles of glaciation. The continents keep the water from easily circumnavigating the globe.

I’m not an expert, and I don’t play one on TV.

I'm not an expert and my VCR blinks. ;-)

Some time ago I posted a speculation that we wouldn't have another ice age because we now have a Bering Strait to allow some circulation. Looks like the same general idea.
