We enjoyed trying to solve the challenges. We hope we're right!! We're a
little concerned about the longitude for the South Pole Station -- if
that's the mystery site, and we think it is. We gave the longitude that is
listed in atlases and the one we believe it really is, but we also realize
that the one we figured out from the Vernal Equinox clues is 172.5, which
they say they borrowed from the time zone they use. We didn't know which
to put, so we went with the actual. Hope this is acceptable!!
