He's gunning for Antarctica now, but needs to secure some funding first, so he'll be back in Alaska in 2014.Jill Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02983065990450931943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-17217490174752751882013-12-12T12:37:11.878-07:002013-12-12T12:37:11.878-07:00dude, lovin' the beach/bay pic! keep up the gr...dude, lovin' the beach/bay pic! keep up the great work.wormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08289820661597280749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-30823409771356167482013-12-12T12:07:44.030-07:002013-12-12T12:07:44.030-07:00Jill, found the post about Tim in April on the oth...Jill, found the post about Tim in April on the other blog.<br /><br />I go be quiet nowSlo Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13727494438183513283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-62232219831866651922013-12-12T11:42:22.819-07:002013-12-12T11:42:22.819-07:00Ha, this seems like a perfect class for you to be ...Ha, this seems like a perfect class for you to be invited to.

Physiology of ada...Interesting program at Stanford. Physiology of adaptation to environmental stresses is one thing, as a genome scientist, I always look at genes beyond the phenotype. Gene variants that play a role in altitude and cold adaptation have been studied for a while and many are known. For instance, gene variants for uncoupling proteins (that are crucial for nonshivering thermogenesis) are thought to play a role in cold resistance. So you may be "blessed" with one of these rare gene variants. The rest of us will dream of moving to Hawaii while playing in the snow.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03059137901941493531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-44602942666112699072013-12-12T08:05:02.968-07:002013-12-12T08:05:02.968-07:00Off thread couple of questions:

I was going to post the next question there, but couldn't see a place for comments.<br /><br />Did Tim complete the unsupported walk? I read the post about him but couldn't find a post about whether or not he finished. <br /><br />You can reply at joesuekeenan AT gmail DOT com if that's easier.Slo Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13727494438183513283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-42271317062756870752013-12-12T04:53:55.859-07:002013-12-12T04:53:55.859-07:00Thanks Jill,
