There has been meaningful media coverage about my Antarctica expedition in the last few days, and links will be posted soon.
I will be doing two or possibly three webcasts between January 13 and January 17. Registration may be necessary to participate, so make sure to sign up early. Stay tuned to this website for details.
Lots of people have been calling and e-mailing to express their support, and I am thankful to everyone. Please be aware that I may not have access to LinkedIn or to my personal e-mail during my South Pole stay. Priority will be given to communication that is channeled using this website.
I will be available to do talks and media interviews after my return in late January. Inquiries are welcome!
