I'd consider it...if I were a plumber. Would be an experience and a half no doubt.

The article says the post is for 18 months. But it also says that the island is occupied in the summer months by 10 scientists. So you're alone during the winter? Or just you and the electrician they are also looking for? You'd better play well with others to survive this job.<G>

“Antarctic scientists seek plumber (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7602102.stm)”I have a scientist friend who jumped at the chance to spend months in Antarctica. She loved the experience.

But she didn’t have to do any plumbing, far as I heard.
