I somehow got conned into getting something from Amazon? I ordered a book from Abebooks and it came in an Amazon Prime envelope -- which I ignored in the hall for a week assuming there was no way it could be for us! But somehow it was, with an Amazon receipt in it and all. Could have sworn I was ordering from a used bookstore in California.

One artist every year is brought to Antarctica to live with the researches. I know Kim Stanley Robinson did so one year (and wrote a fine novel out of it). It would be nice to find a comp of music that came out of that.

During the Trans-Antarctic expedition of 1914-1917, three Adelie penguins approached meteorologist Leonard Hussey while he was playing a banjo. Shackleton wrote that: "The solemn-looking little birds appeared to appreciate 'It's A Long Way to Tipperaray' but they fled in horror when Hussey treated them to a little of the music that comes from Scotland. The shouts of laughter from the ship added to their dismay, and they made off as fast as their short legs would carry them".
