:rotf: " OOPS " is right, looks like somebody jumped the gun. I thought that's why you put it up there...cause you don't miss anything :lol: (Wonder who's taking bets on JVJ ober yonder.)

Imagine if they had instead posted the poll for F3 ?
georgiapeach:
OH. MY.
Is there any possibility that this relates to JVJ being a replacement team--like maybe they were not added into this survey in time? Probably not but...
So are you calling Seattle puddin?

I want to get back to what GEORGIA PEACH said "Are we ready to start speculating more about Ecuador and the Atacama desert?". I previously indicated that the 3 airport cities in the Atacama Desert are Arica, Iquique, and Antofagasta and that I gave a slight edge to Antofagasta based on proximity (only 600 miles) to Santiago. Today I was reading the blog of an intrepid traveler who went the entire length of the Pan American Highway from Prudhoe Bay to Ushuaia. He had his car shipped from Panama City into the port of Arica. In his travels in the Atacama, he particularly referenced the Mano Del Desierto statue (previously displayed in this thread by someone) 75 km south of Antofagasta and the fact that Antofagasta is directly on the Tropic of Capricorn (which is South 23 degrees 26' 21.48"). It goes through the International Airport of Antofagasta. That seems to me to be an excellent reason to be going there. The connection Equator to Tropic of Capricorn to maybe Antarctic Circle (South 66 degrees 33' 39") would be a whiz-bang start to AR11. My hypothesis of visiting King George Island doesn't quite reach south enough for the Antarctic Circle, but who knows what they would do to overcome that distance. They could take helicopters 300 miles south to the Antarctic Peninsula at the Loubert Coast and they would have it.

I'm all for that! :yess: I'll be so disappointed if they don't go to Antarctica (or south pole or whatever Bertram called it)
That blog sounds like something I would LOVE to read--can you provide a link to that? (Feel free to send me a message if you need help doing that--it took me ages to learn and I just about drove puddin crazy with questions while I learned... :js:)
Tropic of Capricorn in Chile--it is near our hand!
