Addendum

This evening, Brandon hauled in the offending wheel to change the tube that was obviously trashed.  We pulled out the new, thorn-resistant tube and I pumped up the old tube to find the unfixable flat that tire slime couldn't fill.  I pumped, found the hole, and then watched as green slime bubbled to fix the flat.  Evidently the tube was not trashed - the slime had simply frozen into a solid lump this morning in my tire and couldn't slide around the inside.  And that is why I'm going to convince Brandon to retire to Tahiti.

How about the Bahamas instead? We could be neighbors! For three years anyway...

Good call! The stuff works, but maybe not in the Arctic.
