international incident

busted. couple of my winter-over coworkers had a wee bit of wheatgrass growing on a paper towel. in violation of the antarctic conservation act (no introduced species). a federal offense. had to sign affidavits and all. the wheatgrass had been a gift from someone at scott base (new zealand's station down the road), so now the kiwis are in trouble too. who knew a little nutritional supplement would turn into an international incident? yikes.
