International Polar Day

September 21, 2007 is the first "International Polar Day" inspired by a group of Scientists from over 60 countries who are studying the Poles from March, 2007 to March, 2009. That's actually a two year period but they're naming the project "International Polar Year" after the 3 "International Polar Years" that have come before in 1882-3, 1932-3, 1957-8. Unless GE can refrigerate the Poles in one hell of a hurry it looks like this may be the last one. So, buy your Polar Bear Calendars and Santa Claus memorabilia now.
