As of this writing, at the page above you can download an audio file of a good interview with the lead scientist working on the ice issue. I saw it broadcast on the Jim Lehrer News Hour on PBS in the USA this evening (Friday) and it was well worth listening to. After Monday it may move into archives or something and you might have to hunt for it a bit (I believe the story title was "Ice on Mars", but you'll work it out!

What if its only frozen C02 Carbon Dioxide? That just evaporates away as well. Doh.
