My forum for all things stitch (knitting, sewing, embroidery) and occasional snarky comments about politics or my research. Sometimes photos of my favorite little beasts even sneak in.
1) Have you read Frankenstein? This makes me think of poor Robert Walton and his doomed trip to the Hyperborean Zone. I like thinking that there is still something to discover int he world.
2) Have you seen the mivioe The Core? Sooooo bad, yet pleasantly craptastic in the way that all the actors involved clearly realized how crappy the movie was, and managed to inject just enough irony to make it watchable if you're home alone on a saturday night. Anyway my point is that duh, the earth is not hollow--it's full of giant purple crystals!
Sounds like they need some people with letters after their names...um, I'm a stable isotope geochemist, doing a phd studying a large river...my husband is an environmental engineer prof(hydrology). Put in the good word for us, willya?

Is it bad that I called the number to try and convince them that they need a geologist to join the expedition?
According to the answering service, my message is apparently being passed along to the relevant parties.
Woot!
