Cold Marconi
McMurdo Station, Antarctica - March 27, 2005

Hi all-

I was just hanging out in LA, and took a little nap. When I woke up, I was bitter cold, and surrounded by folks in red jackets.

Somehow I ended up on the continent of Antarctica at the research station, McMurdo, on the Ross Sea.

Someone thought I belonged in the Electrical Supply department, and that is where I am. I want to leave because they keep trying to plug me into the vehicles to keep them warm. Unfortunately, the next plane out is not until late August.

Help Me!

Brrr: really brrrr

Mike in McMurdo sends, "Marconi has ended up at McMurdo Station, the US Antarctic Programs Science Research Base. The last plane out left at the end of Feb and we won't get another in until the end of April, so Marconi is going to be here a while.

"Photo's later when we get a chance."
