It's not every day that the BBC News features a story on a project that one of my friends works on (Al, of Temple ov thee Lemur fame), still less often when it's this cool a project. I mean, wireless networking and glaciers - how cool is that?

It's not every day, but it's every every month (for a loose value of "friend", I guess):

Cool!

But I suppose that you'd have to use wifi on a glacier, else the cables would snap...

Surely this is the ultimate progression of Project E.U.N.U.C.H.'s groundbreaking research into supercooling computing equipment.

Yeah, I almost wrote "it's not every day that BBC News features a genuine project...".
