Look forward to monitoring the Long View project unfold and progress. I was wondering if you had an opportunity to see Werner Herzog’s capitvating “Encounters at the End of the World” - if not I’m sure you’ll find it on DVD at McMurdo. I especially would like to read your experience undergoing survival training that Herzog depecits. Apparently it’s what all visitors that wish to leave the confines of the base must undergo. Best wishes in your New Year environment.
