I can't help but wonder why anyone wants to stay in a place that's as cold and dark that much of the time. Did you choose to be there or are you stationed in the military? My dad was stationed in Alaska during the war, and has said that he has no desire to return. Here in Solvang California (Danish Capital of America)it is 55 and will reach a high of 75 later today. Do you have heat in the igloo?
