NO VACANCY


This blog could also be entitled "Trapped at Mc Murdo." Here's the deal. For weeks, the Polies, the WAIS Divide people, the Byrd Field Camp folks, and many others have been trapped at Mc Murdo, mainly due to perpetual inclement weather here on the bottom of the planet. The station has been at maximum capacity, which means we have no more beds in which to put people. There's been a large NO VACANCY sign in front of the station and we're turning people away, left and right. Ok, I'm kidding about the No Vacancy sign, but seriously, people have been held in Christchurch because we have no where to put them.

There is something bizarre about this whole thing. I'm not sure what, but it's just plain bizarre to me.
