Wow. The coldest weather I’ve experienced was back in the mid-90’s, when it was 22 degrees below zero on the thermometer on our back deck. I drove to work that morning a wee bit anxious that my car might die on the way.

You suffer from cranial rectumitis.

FWIW, Starry Nitht 5.0 gives sunrise and sunset at 66.5 degrees South, 0 degrees W on July 7, 2007 as: 11:31:33 GMT, 14:38:37 GMT. The sun transits at 13:05:05 at 54 minutes of arc (not quite one degree) above the horizon.

So the Antartic circle had a brief day with the sun hardly visible on the horizon at noon.

Should be close to 24 hours of darkness in Antaractica right now. That seems like a hell of a lot of light to me.

Totally lame, you guys. Polar bears are at the other pole. It would have been funnier with penguins, who actually do live in Antarctica.

Halley is 75 degrees south, so it is dark outside all 24 hours.

You could have simply acted like a man and admitted your mistake, but I see you haven't reached that level yet.

Also in the 90's, 1992 IIRC, drove up to the Eastern Townships of Quebec for a weekend of skiing at Mont Orford. Dunno what the temp actually was, but it was COLD!!! Upon getting ready to leave for back home on monday morning, my car [1982 Honda Accord, 5-speed] started right up no problem, but the gearshift was completely frozen! Couldn't even budge the darn thing for a 1/2 hour! Had to warm up the gearbox for that long just to get the stick to move .......

But the sad thing about that trip was when I discovered the case of Molson Brador in the trunk which bottles had burst. I almost cried when I saw that .........

I was responding to a comment that they were on the Antarctic Circle. Halley Station at Latitude 75°35’ S, Longitude 26°39’ W did not see the sun yesterday. It was always at least 9° below the horizon, transiting at 13:50 GMT (11:50 local time). At best a very dim twilight.

What’s with the microphone? Anyone spot an amp or even a wire?

The foreground is real, the background is a prop.
Probably filmed indoors.

[Dick Vomer]

look at what they’re cooking in the fire..

The mic could be wireless, but it doesn't look like their are any wires to the Electric Guitars!

“I am saying that this picture was not taken on July 7, 2007 as the caption implies.”

That’s it? “Sydney Morning Herald’s picture editor could be more precise” hardly counts as ‘breaking news’.

Here’s the same file photo on a story from the third so, obviously.

I didn't categorize this story as 'Breaking News'.
