What does a 6 day work week mean? You have mentioned you've worked everyday so we didn't quite understand that. You also mentioned adding preservatives to the soil. Why do you do that and what is it??

Hi Ben and Yvonne,You go to school Monday to Friday, it is a five day work week. In Antarctica we work Saturday too. So, the only day off is Sunday.The preservative we add is called Safeguard. It basically freezes everything in it's tracks and lets us study it later without it decaying or changing. I'm not sure what is in it that lets it do that.Thanks for the question.JK
