Extint-Dodo, Thanks for coming by..I am on an Earthwatch expedition to the sub-artctic, or the arctic's edge to volunteer with researchers who are studying the effects of climate/environmental change on the region. It is very rewarding and so much fun despite all the cold and the bumpy rides out to the sites..There are great people here and I am very glad I came.
