This is pretty big news if it all holds up: Viking Ship Unearthed In Memphis.
Of course it was well known that climate was much warmer when the Vikings sailed to the New World (at least until Michael Mann tried to disappear the Medieval Warm Period down the Memory Hole of Inconvenient Truths). And it's quite likely that large scale migrations via the sea were common, or at least not unusual.

The story comes from World News Daily, which is apparently a hoax site of some sort.

cryptical, that's why I said if it holds up. ;-)
It's a hoax, and I've updated my blog post.
Damn... that WOULD have been interesting...
