Oh my...too many issues to think about, fast. Indeed here we also do follow their wanderings in the cold Antarctic deserts with a strange mix if anxious and pleasent feelings and we enjoy so much their extraordinary findings. I foresee a superb and very original exhibit of "cold wonders" in Ensisheim soon. And what a lecture in perspective! You can't miss this! The other mistake I want to correct is the name of Vinciane, one of the important leading members of the Antarctic expedition. Her family name is well DEBAILLE, not Debienne. Thanks Martin, thanks Etienne. Best wishes, Zelimir -- Prof. Zelimir Gabelica Universit? de Haute Alsace ENSCMu, Lab. LPI-GSEC, 3, Rue A.
