Huh

Apparently, this is a new addition to campus. I've got to take a walk up there and check it out. I have some books I need to return to the IARC library anyway. They are apparently building a whole bunch of new of stuff on West Ridge, though I'm not sure exactly what. I do know that plans include a new experimental forest, to include representatives of trees throughout the entire circumpolar region. How cool. I am much amused by the experimental forest near my home. Autumn and I stumbled into it when we were out skiing. It was all normal vegetation, and then suddenly a square plot of all black spruce, then a square plot of all white spruce, then a square plot of all birch, etc. Pretty funny, out in the middle of nowhere.
