Paul,

Thank you! This is a wonderful collaboration and both collaborators have 
fascinating websites featuring their work. Dr. Bowser is particularly 
articulate about the importance of expressing the beauty of the natural 
world and that of science. Sometimes, I think that in trying to "make 
science fun" we forget that dimension of awe and wonder that comes from work 
like this. Fun is great -- this is another dimension. (I wonder if her 
aesthetic was well-suited to the polar environment or she captures it -- or 
both.)

Again, thanks for posting this. I just thought I would encourage others to 
visit.
