Default Does this mean you could land on Uranus or Neptune?

They were re-classified as "ice-giants" instead of "gas-giants" like Saturn and Jupiter. Jupiter and Saturn have atmospheres that become virtually liquid the deeper you go, but this article seems to imply there may be solid surfaces on Uranus and Neptune. This is the first I've read about it.
