Scotch drinkers
Did you see this?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12218170

Ernest Shackleton's 100 year old scotch brought from under the ice of Antarctica and back to Scotland.

Cool!

I think they found more than just scotch. Seems like old guy liked his booze.

Great story!

Fits right in the the excellent story of the voyage, of the Endurance.

They don't make explorers like that any more.

I heard about this too. They decided to take it back to where they found it but not before taking samples of it.

It sure would have been nice to taste!

I've been reading about polar exploration in recent months.

It's amazing what humans can endure!
