	The questionaire is great but the whole microsite is quite a read. I like the job opportunities in "Google Copernicus Hosting Environment and Experiment in Search Engineering ", which has for obvious acronym "G.C.H.E.E.S.E. Check it out on http://www.google.com/jobs/lunar_job.html Finally, the FAQ answers all the questions you could think of, and a few you haven't even dreamt of yet: http://www.google.com/virgle/faq.html and YES, Virgle is real !

	Getting back to the penguins , as seen on TV, I dispair at this new 'Photoshop' type toy the BBC technicians have to play with. Previously it was hippos synchronised underwater swimming. Kids will grow up thinking this is real. With a bit more imagination the technicians could make it distinguishable from reality without detracting from the content.
