Steve, you'd better quit while you're a head, but OK,
antarctica.pipingdesign.com is now your resonsibility. Don't ruin
it!
Could you refine those co-ordinates? We Canadians have developed a nuclear, swimming beaver with GPS and it needs testing. Shouldn't be much effort to make it to Antarctica, since on the map it's only a few mm's distance.
Please send all penguin recipes, it would make a good addition to the existing baby seal ones. Would I have to import a polar bear for stuffing?
