I have been to the South Pole. In my Navy days I was attached to Operation Deep Freeze. I spent New Year's Eve/Day/Week 1986 into 1987 at the South Pole. Incredible experience. I used to have a t-shirt that read. "Ski South Pole 1/2 " Powder, 10,000' of base."

I don't like the cold...but couldnt pass up the chance to go to both! Sure, I'd go!

Lived in the North....Been there done that...

So it's the South Antarctic Seas for Me!!!!!

Just so long as I don't have to wadle 70 miles to get lucky.....

hell to the no!!!

A few years ago I found a job posting from Raytheon at a scientific outpost in Antarctica that sounded interesting and I was qualified for, I considered applying for it for about 20 seconds until I remembered it was in Antarctica.

I have read numerous things about "Operation Deep Freeze" and met a couple people over the years that were there...... Never had the option to go myself.
