That is also a reference to the title of the "news" article on gizmodo.com. Sorry that this wasn't clear.

In particular, I was imagining that gizmodo A/B tested "Most of Greenland Melted about a Million Years Ago" vs "Most of Greenland Melted in the Recent Past".

The latter (to a non-geologist) is quite a bit more sensational.
