Hey List!! It is I, Crone of the Willamette, actually posting to BrinL again now that things are quiet. I'm not sure what happened, but the politics has seemed to decline, and that's all good in my opinion. The Olympics may have something to do with the sleepiness of the list, too.
I was blown away by the pictures from Mongolia. *MONGOLIA* I didn't know yurts came with parquet floors, either. I also think that yurt is the wrong word, as it seemed to be 'ger' or some such. I want to know, Andrew, what do you burn in those stoves? And do they really keep you warm? What's your source of electricity? Are wind turbines used? I was in a yurt at a medieval event once, when it was stifling hot. The door was left open, and the yurt just funneled the breeze through the door and out the hole in the top. It was the only pleasant 'tent' in the entire encampment. I've been a fascinated with them since. How is everyone? Any other sleepers out there care to check in?
