But Did You Bring A Flag?

Ah, remember the good old days when you could steal an entire country with the mere of gesture planting a flag?  Russia does.  They've planted a flag in a bank of under water mineral deposits under the North Pole.  The claim would effectively double the energy resources of the country if the claim holds up in court.  Now that's forward thinking; by the time we've melted off the icecap, we'll need a new drilling ground and the newly opened up deposit will be just the thing to keep our fires burning.
