Oh hell...
Speaking on topic, yeah, this seems somewhat creepy.
Were the Antarctic sub-glacial lakes known in the begining of 20th century?

I seriously dought it...they didnt know shit back then...all they cared about was the rubber supply

Ehm, could you please elaborate on the rubber supply?

Well, we couldn't vulcanise it at first, so it wasn't good for re-use. Needs must.
I'd say people were a lot less informed than you'd hope. Tunguska was considered a portent of armageddon. (Well, for a day or two).

Got that. Didn't know that the rubber suply was of SUCH and importance prior to vulcanization.As for the lakes, now it really makes me feel uneasy.
Lovecraft couldn't have known of lakes out there... So we can either discard it as coincidence, or claim HPL to be a rather efficient prophet.
Prophecies are a tricky buisness (for instance, none of Biblical prophecies have confirmed as of yet, though often thought otherwise...) but this seems like a valid one - he just claimed there ARE lakes in there, under the ice, and tada, they are there
What next?
A sunken city of unfathomable and repusive architecture, with space being localy distorted, rises from deep sea?
