Journey to the Ends of the Earth

For a while, it seemed, that enroute to Antarctica, the Nerdling had been lost in cyberspace. But her sites back up now, and she's arrived on the final continent safe and sound.

She's already cast her scientific eye over several vital subjects. FUDS, for instance. Not to mention the magical shoelace that never comes undone.

Personally, I would like to suggest several more fruitful areas of inquiry:

- What does the South Pole look like? Is it like this, or more like this?

- If Santa Claus lives at the North Pole, then who lives at the South Pole? His evil twin, Satan Claws?

- I remember reading a story-thing by H. - something-Lovecraft-somebody-or-other about creatures that lived in caves beneath the Antarctic, or some such place. Anyway, if it happened in a book, it must be true, so can you get some photographs? (Oh, and don't forget to stick around for the moment when the Ancient Evil arises from its Icy Grave and destroys the world, and stuff).

- How far to the left of the South Pole is the North Pole?

- Once you've reached the South Pole, how far do you have to keep on walking before you fall off the Edge of the Earth?

Anyway, cheers, Nerdling, keep up the good work and the great blog. In your honour, I have created a new poll; it's on the sidebar, and I call it - The South Poll. It's about that most vexed question in human history: WHY??? WHY??? IN GOD/BUDDHA/CTHULHU'S NAME, WHY???
