out of nowhere...I got bit with the Antarctica bug too...after wasting all my personal time planning a trip to area 51 over the last 3 weeks, I needed a new suckhole for my spare time...I found your posts through the military facilities forum where all the 51 stuff is and was blown away by your excellent BS filter...the links you posted are superb and I really appreciate having most of the junk thrown away even before I began my research...anyways thank you very much, I'll be dead to my girl for another 3 weeks now.

Personally I loved BDG and the other beaker/personal sites you put up...but my interest is primarily beneath Lake Vostock right now...Magnetic Anomolies...50 tonnes of freon and jet fuel poised like the sword of damacles above the most pristine water/environment on earth...fresh water warm enough to support life and hard evidence of bacteria living in the reforzen lake water...too good to be true? I would love to believe there is a spaceship, lost civilization or some new type of life down there...but you have a better idea than me at this point...What do you think is most likely behind the magentic anomoly and why were so many folks med-evacuated from Scott a few years back(according to the Vostok ?'s conspiracy link you put up)...if you have minute to offer your best guess as to what the most current developments are and what's going on I'd love it...

PS: I'm looking into finding a way to make it down there on the govt's dime...any ideas for folks without a scientific background? Is there a need for janitors and cooks? or are those duties just shared by the researchers?

I've been posting in the Area 51 thread? I seemed to have lost track here..hm....

But hey, I'm glad you liked the list of links. There really is a treasure trove of sites out there, but they are hard to find. In fact, most of the links I found were through other sites I found on BDG. Heh. Go figure. In fact, I'll state something that sometimes really make me go hmmmm!. I found a link to the BDG article on ModernDrunkard, via a link on Fark. That, and my search for pics, was where it all began. But here's the funny thing. During my search on Antarctica, I found ATS. I bookmarked it right away, and then forgot about it for a week. So in a way, Antarctica brought me here. Weird eh? My friends have forgotten I exist, as ALL my time has mostly been either looking at Antartica, or ATS.

But my interest is primarily beneath Lake Vostock right now...Magnetic Anomolies...50 tonnes of freon and jet fuel poised like the sword of damacles above the most pristine water/environment on earth...fresh water warm enough to support life and hard evidence of bacteria living in the reforzen lake water...too good to be true?

Lake Vostock, eh?

Well ya know, I've more or less ignored the non-proved stuff about this region, primarily because: The really out-there legends about the area started when the first explorers (not going to bother with details here) found Antarctica. Some of them died, some barely made it out, and they made these journeys horribly un-equipped for the weather and region. Some surely went nutzo, crazy, insane during those journeys, and whatever lush, green lands were found, were probably the result of frostbite and starvation.

You might ask why I am on ATS and have that sort of opinion. Well, first I'm a skeptic. But not entirely. If there are a ton of usual, normal reasons for something, and those reasons are things I already believe, I will tend to not believe in something. Such is the case for the legends of this Lake.

The bacterium that has been found in the lake is really important. The rest of The Ice is so lacking in life! We could learn so much from what is in the water of that lake. Is it possible the lake is the way it is, because of some higher purpose or reason? Of course. But first and foremost, I think it's important that we do not YET destroy areas of Antarctica based solely on reasons of conspiracy.

As for those widely publicized medvacks...Well first we have a female doctor in the most desolate part of the world. Who becomes ill with cancer during a Winter Over. Sheesh! That alone is newsworthy, especially if you know what it's like there during the winter. Next, you have 2 (or 3, not sure) people who come down with....gallstones. Of all the damn things. At least it was that, or something very close. Sure, that is a tad odd, but really, only newsworthy because of the trouble of getting these people off The Ice. and they did have to leave, because medical services were (and still are) poorly represented on The Ice. After all this happened, Raytheon starting testing all support, and some others, with ultrasound before heading to the ice. These tests are part of a fairly major medical examine most have to go through to go to The Ice. Since then, nobody else has had to be taken off the The Ice for such a condition. These are random, unforeseen, events. Nothing more.


PS: I'm looking into finding a way to make it down there on the govt's dime...any ideas for folks without a scientific background? Is there a need for janitors and cooks? or are those duties just shared by the researchers?


Eeesh, your making me post a corporate link here! Gach!

Raytheon Jobs on the Ice

It depends on the station, and what your capable of doing. These, such jobs are there, and no, the beakers generally do not end up JUST doing that. (Some beakers are lame, and will not lift a finger when something needs to be done, others will help out on the station if they are not busy with a project).

The personal blog link I posted is run by someone on The Ice right now, and they respond to email. BDG is edited by someone who has been to The Ice five times, and he responds to email.

The Ice People forum link I posted has existing threads about looking for jobs on The Ice.

Good luck!

I just lost my first rendition of this post. And my first is always my best. So I hope you will forgive for my lack of flair this second time around. Anways!


There's an odd tradition amongst those that season on The Ice. Each season, many bases watch John Carpenters "The Thing". They hunker down and watch this movie, meanwhile displaying an enormous degree of MST3K type of humor.

It’s a tradition because it’s one of the few movies centered around Antarctica, and one of the most entertaining. Since most American people here have probably seen this movie, I wish to submit a newish movie, just for information’s sake.

“Alien Hunter” is a movie loosely centered around aliens, government conspiracy, and Antarctica. While much of the movie is inside, exterior shots are appropriate for the area, and McMurdo station is mentioned early on in the movie.

For those interested in conspiracy and Antarctica, it’s worth a peak. Just don’t expect an A movie. It’s worth seeing a couple of times, and I’d suggest renting it before you buy.

I’d like to mention I hadn’t seen this until after being on ATS for these past weeks, as well as my 3-week research binge into Antarctica. It was interesting to watch from my new, improved perspective.
