For a while this will be focused on my trips to the South Pole to work on ARA and IceCube experiments as a physicist and instrumentation scientist from the Wisconsin IceCube Particle Astrophysics Center at the University of Wisconsin.
Here Dr. DuVernois will ponder the world, the web, and all things in the middle. If that isn't a noble enough project, I'll also post interesting links. This web journal is held in lieu of a writing journal and continues my UMN, MySpace, and Facebook blogs.

Some oddities at the South Pole
Sousaphone in the hallway. The lobster isn't native to the Pole region. The bread might be. Perry looks quite dapper in his tux, but there are no penguins at the South Pole. A marathon at the South Pole? Yep.
Why is there a Sousaphone at the South Pole? Are there other instruments or even a band?
