When our icebreaker suffered a major fire accident few years ago the HMS Endurance was offered to help the replenish of our antartic bases in return of the favor.

Our relationships are not that bad as some claims.

Just a quick note to thank both Jorge and Swerve for their two latest posts and the information contained therein. And, Jorge, FYI, me naci en la ciudad de Mexico muchos anos pasados. Hoy dia, yo no puedo hablar nada en Espanol, la lengua de mi nacimiento.. However, your English looks like it's going to become better and better every day.

Thanks John,
I have a technical degree en Electronics, when I was a highschool student one of my teachers told me "Jorge, in electronics, if a book or handbook is in spanish is probably old and a bit outdated, you better start to learn english..." that is what I did and since I have been working for USA based companies for the last 10 years that helped a lot

best regards

Jorge
PS: off topic, I know but wanted to say thanks to John

Nice to hear of some cooperation between the nations at least, thats the foundation for overcoming old rivalries. It's also very necessary in the harsh conditions of the South Atlantic that ships and aircraft look out for each other, not many others about to come to their aid if something goes wrong.

Indeed. I think that for the most part, everyone down there sees the weather as the common enemy, & co-operates against it.
