Word of the Day: Pagophilia

That's right even in Antarctica you can learn new words.

First step is to break down the word into parts:

Pagophilia -
pago = ice
philia = love

Therefore,
pagophilia = lover of ice

or the opposite - pagophobic = scared of ice.

Now, how could you look at the picture above of pressure ridges and not be a pagophiliac? Good question..
