Jimmy Ly period 4 Hi Mr. Wood. First of all, I just wanted to wish you good luck on the experiment and I have a question for the second one. What type of vehicle do you use at Alaska? Thank you.

Hi, Mr. Wood. It seems like most of the crew that is working in Alaska is from the University of Florida. Is it true that most of them are from Florida?

John Wood

Everybody went to school or worked at Florida in the last year or so.Thanks,
Mr. Wood

Hi, Mr. Wood. Why are you clearing the side of the fence with more snow?
Also, how can those people in the picture wear t-shirts in that coldness? I can't even survive without a jacket here!

Hi. I need to post this again because as usual, there is an error.

John Wood

By removing the extra snow we are controlling the experiment. The weather today was warm and nice. I was in a T-shirt and my shorts!Thanks,

Hi, Mr. Wood. I wish you luck at the Montreal meeting and how far away is Montreal from Alaska and how long would it take to fly there?

John Wood

Thanks for the luck. Montreal is in Canada above New York state. It will take nine or more hours to get there flying from here, and more with the stops in the airports.Thanks,
Mr. Wood

Hi. Why was the building so colorful? Was it just the way the architects wanted it to be?
Did you get to speak at the meeting? If so, did you share your video?

John Wood

The building was made that way. I think it looks good. I did speak a bit at the meeting but did not have the time for the video.Thanks,
Mr. Wood

Hi. Did they call the ship an ice breaker because it broke the ice that formed over the sea?

John Wood

Yes, the ship has a special bow that will ride up on top of the ice and then use its weight to break it and sail ahead. The really large breakers can go through more than 21 feet of ice!Thanks,
Mr. Wood

Hi. So did the police talk English? Did anyone else fit into the egg?
