Perhaps a positive consequence of global warming - will whales re-populate the Atlantic?

i'm feeling sorry for the poor pioneer; he (she? more likely a lone male) followed the usual route; which is normally very easy, you just go along the edge of the ice, turn right, and follow the southbound current down to the other cold place. but he ed up big time! he went far too far along the ice, turned across the northbound current as he should, but it was the north atlantic drift instead of the kuroshio. he kept following the eastern coast as usual, and ended up in a hot salty dead end with loads of noise, muck and people. i really hope he finds his way out and turns left again and gets back to the antarctic. if he does, he will have some really valuable knowledge to p on to the rest of the pacific group; a whole other ocean, but watch out for the salty place, its a bummmer; if you hit a reallly strong current halfway down, leave it, follow the sun and keep to the soft wide stream.
