As I explained in post #20 the shallower rays of light coming through the atmosphere make Sunburn less likely in TDf than in the tropics. Do any of my peers thinks this needs to be mentioned in A694668

I do.

I also think the article is very good.

However, I would like to see a little more about modern Tierra de Fuego if there's anything you can add.

"From Punta Arenas at Latitude 53.9º S. Longitude 70º.55' W to
Cape Horn, Latitude 57º.48' S. Longitude 67°19´ W where the ocean is renowned for its fits of bad weather" - I'd say you can lose the 'where' in that bit.

A question - are the native americans still extant, or have they been wiped out by European guns and diseases? And, in fact, I'd be interested in finding out exactly who lives there now, and what they do for a living.

I really don't think I want to say anything about ozone depletion. I added a sentence in Modern Day Ushuaia to say that the native language is spanish. Anyone (like six) who wants more information should be able to get it from the links. I'm ready for it to go in.smiley - cheers

Sorry to spoil the party mood - but I disagree wholeheartedly with "Anyone who wants more information should be able to get it from the links" - personally, if it was possible to include it in the Entry, I'd much rather be able to find out a little basic information without having to leave h2g2. Certainly in a comparatively short entry.

But that's just my smiley - 2cents.

A great article about a place I'd heard about but of which I didn't know anything. Glad to be able to pick it.
smiley - ok
