15 December, 2000--============_-1235116307==_ma============ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Greetings, On Thursday night many of the people on station joined Heidi Geisz and Jeff Bechtel in a lesson on tie-dyeing. We were taught a variety of methods to get various designs and then we got to work. Within an hour I had completed my two t-shirts and had them stored for Friday night's rinse out. We worked in teams to rinse the shirts, towels and socks and then tossed them in the washer and dryer. At 11 p.m. we were all looking at our new creations. Saturday was identified as Tie-Dye day. All parcticipants wore them and stood for group photos after the station meeting. All station personnel work long hours and enjoy these short reprieves from their duties. I now everyone would like to know what the vote is. I had a tremendous amount of e-mail the last few days from groups and individuals voting. My school voted 267 to 23 to toss me in. I guess my students really love me. So the final totals are 359 to jump and 47 to not jump. As I promised I will jump in the water and give you a full description. Unfortunately the weather has turned bad and we are experiencing a 20 - 30 knot wind so I will try to make the leap tomorrow or Monday. I had psyched myself up for the leap into the unknown tonight but will try to stay focused for the leap. I'm really tired today. I was packing boxes for my departure and stayed up until 2 am the night before to finish. I was carrying over the last box at 1:45 am and noticed the beautiful sunset. Today, I filtered water and showed Sarah how to take the ice pictures and tomorrow I will train her on running chlorophylls. She will be taking over many of my jobs since I will be departing next week. I also have heard that there is a blonde penguin over at Torgersen island. I hope to get over there tomorrow to see for myself and to get some more pictures of babies to share with you. As your humble servant my days are growing short. If you would like further information on a topic please drop me an e-mail. Please stop by tomorrow to see if I was able to take the plunge. -- Bill --============_-1235116307==_ma============ Content-Type: text/enriched; charset="us-ascii" <fontfamily>Times<bigger><bigger>Greetings, On Thursday night many of the people on station joined Heidi Geisz and Jeff Bechtel in a lesson on tie-dyeing.
