Sir,

With regard to your note about “Glacierization” in the latest issue of the Journal, I should like to say that I always use “glacierization” and “glaciation” in the manner suggested by Wright and Priestley. The distinction is fundamental, and if we drop “glacierization” we shall only have to make up another word. I also use “deglacierization” and not “deglaciation” (which reminds me of little men with brooms sweeping away the traces of the ice). I hope you will support Wright and Priestley against Flint.
