Ok, so I take a glass full of water, add a solid to it, and the water level drops? Did this guy ever hear of displacement?
You know, add another object - liquid or solid - to a liquid, and it displaces the liquid, making the level rise. Yeah, I get that water expands when it freezes, that's all fine and dandy, but in the instance of a glacier, an amount of water is above the surface, not displacing the water in the ocean. So when that part melts, it's obviously going to displace water, unlike before when it wasn't.
Man, that guy's an idiot.

I know, despite the fact that's he's been proven wrong multiple times, he still continues to say there is no such thing
