"May 20, 2008 -- A closer look at the remnants of 
mid-latitude glaciers on Mars has revealed signs of deep, 
icy rivers in the recent geologic past, say researchers who 
have published the discovery in the May issue of the journal 
Geology."

Not only are these glacier indications well away from the 
poles but there are suggestions that there may still be 
glaciers present at these locations.

    "We are very confident that there was a kilometre of ice 
at this location," said Dickson. Nearby lowlands would also 
have been filled with ice, in some areas two kilometres 
deep, he explained. The expansive ice sheet was perhaps 
comparable to what covered North America during the last Ice 
Age. "

Expect an ice update soon after next Sunday.
You may have to wait a while for a 2km thick ice sheet where 
you are located at present. But, maybe not as long as most 
people seem to think :-(.
