Killing Two Birds With One Snow Ball -- by the way, that is impossible

Note: No one was hurt (Severely) during the making of this post

Yo! Check it out! On MSNBC they just published an article about my thesis (not specifically my thesis, but general area) as well as the project I will be working on in Antarctica. It talks a bunch about how many people/countries are involved in the two projects. It also mentions how Penn State and Washington University will be doing the seismic stuff down there -- described in limited detail earlier. The link for the site is

Reminder:
My thesis is on the crustal structure along the Transantarctic Mountains
The project I am working on in Antarctica is AGAP -- better details of location are given in the article.

So, whats up next:
On Friday me, Stew, and Sam will be heading to Washington University for the weekend to meet up with the rest of the crew and likely get some training with the equipment we will be using. Its probably a better idea to learn how things work in +50 degree weather rather than -50.

Hopefully more details will be given regarding a timescale for everything when Im in St. Louis. But even then it will only be an estimate of everything since the weather is very unpredictable and can change plans.
