Rescue by E-mail

BlameFate writes: "This neat article over at The Scotsman tells of a guy trying to be the first person to walk to the north pole solo. He got marooned and needed rescuing though, so how did he co-ordinate the rescue attempt? Why, by making a 400m runway in the snow taking a digital photo of it and then e-mailing the photo to the rescue team in Canada of course! The Scotsman is short on details; but BBC News is out for me right now."

    I'm asking for it, I know, but does it occur to you that must of us women who use this type of technology might have better things to do than ask your (or another man's opinion) on how we look in something?

    Of course, I look good in everything, but that's beside the point. :)
