Wow. Now here's something ya don't see everyday! Where & how in the heck did you ever even find this??? It's amazing! For about the last 1-1.5yrs I have suddenly become infatuated, mesmerized & hypnotized by every, any & all things Arctic (& to a lesser degree, Antarctic). This post of yours is a real treasure. Thank you so very much for sharing it.
