Since we are starting after Thanksgiving you can count me in! I'll be the navigator.

Nogrod · 11-19-2009, 09:06 AM

Even if Thanksgiving is not a popular holiday here in Finland I must join the choir saying that due to the posponed starting date I'm also able to take part. I'm just drowning under loads of work right now but it should ease up a bit the next week...

I could be an old paleo-ecologist with his own theory of the climate change based on his own studies spreading over five decades.
*copy paste that!

PS. I think Night1 could be started already on 28th or something (the earlier date) as N1 discussions between the wolves are not that central and rarely produce any real dashing schemes that would have to be adopted already on D1.

I think I'll throw in a game again after a while. Sign me up as palaeomathematician, if that's admissible.

*is shocked to see Mac*

*hugs him*

Oh, and I am of course in. DL's when I'm at work so expect shorter posts but higher quantity. And yay for Mnemo too!

(P.S. I'll think of a role later, but I need to get back to work. Heh, right.)

Another marine biologist at your service, sir. And since I'm afraid I can't be the penguin expert (eh?

), may I be the whale expert? I like them a lot too.

So you may put me down as a marine biologist, a whale expert, or even Pitchie's assistant (some sort of junior marine biologist?) who's just specialised in whales. Whatever sounds the best.

Okay, what exactly does that mean?

Never mind.

Well, you can be both whale AND penguin expert - you just won't be exercising one of the parts of your expertise here, that's all

I think this expedition could do very well with two full-fledged marine biologists, Lommy - after all, the arctic is just an ice-covered sea, isn't it? As a matter of fact, my special field of research is cnidaria and mollusca - you know, jellyfish, squids and everything soft and wobbly (plus a minor interest in echinodermata, such as starfish); I'll gladly leave whales, dolphins and other sea-borne mammals to you. (By the way, remind me to tell you that joke about the dolphin, the squid and the shark one of these days, if you haven't heard it yet and the exigency of our expedition leaves us time for such matters.)
Pleased to have you on board, anyway!

(Which reminds me -

Paleo-mathematician?

Waver Pythagoras, Plato, Euclid, Descartes, Leibnitz, Gödel... well all of you! Here's paleo-mathematics! L. Ron Hubbard might have loved it?

Heh, I think our characters should get very well together characterwise Mac - as impossible as it looks looking at our history of ww together...
