HOW big is that iceberg?

I was scanning through the archives of the Astronomy Picture of the Day Archive looking for a good desktop picture, when I ran across this gem, which I had seen before but forgotten. Yeah. It was the size of Long Island. Give or take a square mile or so. What was the first thing that sprang to my mind? That guy from Brewster’s Millions (Huh? Which Brewster’s Millions? The 5th of that title; the one with Richard Pryor. Incidentally, there have been seven movies based on that story. Wild, huh?) who gets Brewster to back his plan to put motors on icebergs, sail them to the Middle East and sell the ice.
