I left not too long ago, it's gotten significantly warmer. Rained every week of summer. I think it hit 60 one day. The tow is closed because the permafrost underneath shifted and the building is cracking in half.
Oh, holy shit. They normally leave the foundation vents open on the buildings in the winter and close them in the spring to make sure the permafrost stays frozen.
One of my coworkers (who loves going to Thule) is a major climate change denier. Wonder how he'll spin that when we go back in a couple years.
"The tow" isn't ringing bells - what's that again?
The tow was (rip) the bar. That's wild, you can literally see the change happening in real time. If you guys do work on the radar regularly we've probably met haha, small world.
Ah, that's right. Damn, that's half the social scene there.
We work on the fuel farm. It's up for a major overhaul in a couple years.
