QUESTION:
Are there any "Go" players in Antarctica?  We play "Go" in our class 
and have not played anyone yet from Antarctica.

Hi, David.

I'm not familiar with "Go", but my officemate has played "Go" and 
thinks it is a great game.  He hasn't played in quite a few years 
though, so he thinks he'd be beaten quite easily!  :)  They may play 
"Go" at one or both of the other US antarctic stations. 

We play quite a bit of cribbage here.  Sometimes other games like 
Spades and Hearts get played, poker, too.  During the summer though, 
when it is lighter and warmer out, most people spend their evenings 
playing outside on the glacier or on the area islands.

Cheers,
Mary Lenox
